Romeo and Juliet
In the later balcony scene , Shakespeare has Romeo overhear Juliet 's soliloquy , but in Brooke 's version of the story , her declaration is done alone . By bringing Romeo into the scene to eavesdrop , Shakespeare breaks from the normal sequence of courtship . Usually , a woman was required to be modest and shy to make sure that her suitor was sincere , but breaking this rule serves to speed along the plot . The lovers are able to skip courting and move on to plain talk about their relationship -- agreeing to be married after knowing each other for only one night . In the final suicide scene , there is a contradiction in the message -- in the Catholic religion , suicides were often thought to be condemned to hell , whereas people who die to be with their loves under the `` Religion of Love '' are joined with their loves in paradise . Romeo and Juliet 's love seems to be expressing the `` Religion of Love '' view rather than the Catholic view . Another point is that although their love is passionate , it is only consummated in marriage , which keeps them from losing the audience 's sympathy .
Beauty and the Beast
Beauty and the Beast ( French : La Belle et la Bête ) is a traditional fairy tale written by French novelist Gabrielle - Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve and published in 1740 in La Jeune Américaine et les contes marins ( The Young American and Marine Tales ) . Her lengthy version was abridged , rewritten , and published first by Jeanne - Marie Leprince de Beaumont in 1756 in Magasin des enfants ( Children 's Collection ) and by Andrew Lang in the Blue Fairy Book of his Fairy Book series in 1889 , to produce the version ( s ) most commonly retold . It was influenced by some earlier stories , such as `` Cupid and Psyche '' , written by Lucius Apuleius Madaurensi in The Golden Ass in the 2nd century AD , and `` The Pig King '' . an Italian fairytale published by Giovanni Francesco Straparola in The Facetious Nights of Straparola .
Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
Citing the year Austen first wrote a draft of the novel , Wright and Moggach changed the period setting from 1813 ( the novel 's publication date ) to the late eighteenth century ; this decision was partly because Wright wanted to highlight the differences within an England influenced by the French Revolution , as he was fascinated that it had `` caused an atmosphere among the British aristocracy of fear '' . Additionally , Wright chose the earlier period because he hated dresses with an empire silhouette , which were popular in the later period . The decision helped make the film visually distinct from other recent Austen adaptations . In comparison to the popular 1995 BBC version , which featured Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle , producer Paul Webster desired to make an adaptation that `` does n't conform to the television drama stereotypes of a perfect clean Regency world '' . Wright and Moggach opted for a `` muddy hem version '' of Longbourn , presenting a more rural setting than in previous adaptations out of a desire to depict the Bennets in `` very close proximity to their rural life '' and to emphasise their relative poverty . While the degree of poverty was criticised by some critics , Wright felt that the `` mess adds to the drama of the predicament that the family were in '' , and helps contrast the Bennets , Darcys , and Bingleys .
Romeo and Juliet
Juliet visits Friar Laurence for help , and he offers her a potion that will put her into a deathlike coma for `` two and forty hours '' . The Friar promises to send a messenger to inform Romeo of the plan so that he can rejoin her when she awakens . On the night before the wedding , she takes the drug and , when discovered apparently dead , she is laid in the family crypt .

Love lock
In the rest of Europe , love padlocks started appearing in the early 2000s as a ritual or epidemy . The reasons love padlocks started to appear vary between locations and in many instances are unclear . However , in Rome , the ritual of affixing love padlocks to the bridge Ponte Milvio can be attributed to the 2006 book I Want You by Italian author Federico Moccia , who made a film adaptation in 2007 .
Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
Wright 's adaptation failed to have the same cultural impact as the 1995 serial and has since attracted sharply - divided opinions . However , even three years after the release , Knightley was still associated with Elizabeth Bennet among a generation of young viewers who had not seen the 1995 production . Given the varied opinions about the film , JASNA published an edited special issue of its online journal Persuasions On - Line in 2007 with the collaboration of nineteen Austen scholars from six countries ; the intent was to foster discussion and stimulate scholarly analysis . JASNA had done this only once before , for the 1996 film Emma .
Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
Pride & Prejudice impacted later productions in the costume drama and heritage film genres . Literary critics protested that Wright 's adaptation effectively `` popularized Austen 's celebrated romance and brought her novel to the screen as an easy visual read for an undemanding mainstream audience . '' Carole Dole noted that the film 's success `` only made it more likely that future adaptations of Austen will feature , if not necessarily mud , then at least youthful and market - tested performers and youth - oriented filmmaking techniques balanced with the visual pleasures of the heritage film . '' She cited Anne Hathaway in the 2007 film Becoming Jane as an example . Jessica Durgan added that Pride & Prejudice conceived a new hybrid genre by rejecting the visual cues of the heritage film , which attracted `` youth and mainstream audiences without alienating the majority of heritage fans . ''

What's Love Got to Do with It (film)
Though the film took its story from Tina Turner 's autobiography , I , Tina , it was determined to be only loosely based on the book , meaning certain events in the film were `` fictionalized for dramatic purposes '' . Examples of the fictionalized scenes include :
One Thousand and One Nights
The critic Robert Irwin singles out the two versions of The Thief of Baghdad ( 1924 version directed by Raoul Walsh ; 1940 version produced by Alexander Korda ) and Pier Paolo Pasolini 's Il fiore delle Mille e una notte , 1974 ) as ranking `` high among the masterpieces of world cinema .

Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
Production of Pride & Prejudice began Wright 's relationship with Working Title Films , the first of four collaborations . Many members of the film 's cast and crew joined Wright in his later directorial efforts . For his adaptation of Atonement , which he viewed as `` a direct reaction to Pride & Prejudice '' , Wright hired Knightley , Blethyn , Marianelli , Thibaudet , Greenwood , and Durran . Atonement employed themes similar to Austen 's , including the notion of a young writer living in `` an isolated English country house '' who `` mixes up desires and fantasies , truths and fiction . '' Wright 's 2009 film The Soloist included Hollander , Malone , and Marianelli , while Hollander was also featured in Hanna ( 2011 ) . Wright 's 2012 adaptation of Anna Karenina features Knightley , Macfadyen , Marianelli , Durran , and Greenwood and is produced by Bevan , Eric Fellner , and Webster .
Titanic (1997 film)
Cameron wrote a scriptment for a Titanic film , met with 20th Century Fox executives including Peter Chernin , and pitched it as `` Romeo and Juliet on the Titanic '' . Cameron stated , `` They were like , ' Oooooohkaaaaaay -- a three - hour romantic epic ? Sure , that 's just what we want . Is there a little bit of Terminator in that ? Any Harrier jets , shoot - outs , or car chases ? ' I said , ' No , no , no . It 's not like that . ' '' The studio was dubious about the idea 's commercial prospects , but , hoping for a long - term relationship with Cameron , they gave him a greenlight . Director

Musical theatre
West Side Story ( 1957 ) transported Romeo and Juliet to modern day New York City and converted the feuding Montague and Capulet families into opposing ethnic gangs , the Jets and the Sharks . The book was adapted by Arthur Laurents , with music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by newcomer Stephen Sondheim . It was embraced by the critics , but failed to be a popular choice for the `` blue - haired matinee ladies '' , who preferred the small town River City , Iowa of Meredith Willson 's The Music Man to the alleys of Manhattan 's Upper West Side . Apparently Tony Award voters were of a similar mind , since they favored the former over the latter . West Side Story had a respectable run of 732 performances ( 1,040 in the West End ) , while The Music Man ran nearly twice as long , with 1,375 performances . However , the film of West Side Story was extremely successful . Laurents and Sondheim teamed up again for Gypsy ( 1959 , 702 performances ) , with Jule Styne providing the music for a backstage story about the most driven stage mother of all - time , stripper Gypsy Rose Lee 's mother Rose . The original production ran for 702 performances , and was given four subsequent revivals , with Angela Lansbury , Tyne Daly , Bernadette Peters and Patti LuPone later tackling the role made famous by Ethel Merman .
Beauty and the Beast
Villeneuve 's original tale includes several elements that Beaumont 's omits . Chiefly , the backstory of both Beauty and the Beast is given . The Beast was a prince who lost his father at a young age , and whose mother had to wage war to defend his kingdom . The queen left him in care of an evil fairy , who tried to seduce him when he became an adult ; when he refused , she transformed him into a beast . Beauty 's story reveals that she is not really a merchant 's daughter but the offspring of a king and a good fairy . A wicked fairy had tried to murder Beauty so she could marry her father the king , and Beauty was put in the place of the merchant 's dead daughter to protect her . Villeneuve also gave the castle elaborate magic , which obscured the more vital pieces of it . Beaumont greatly pared down the cast of characters and simplified the tale to an almost archetypal simplicity .
Titanic (1997 film)

Romeo and Juliet
The balcony scene was introduced by Da Porto in 1524 . He had Romeo walk frequently by her house , `` sometimes climbing to her chamber window '' and wrote , `` It happened one night , as love ordained , when the moon shone unusually bright , that whilst Romeo was climbing the balcony , the young lady ... opened the window , and looking out saw him '' . After this they have a conversation in which they declare eternal love to each other . A few decades later , Bandello greatly expanded this scene , diverging from the familiar one : Julia has her nurse deliver a letter asking Romeo to come to her window with a rope ladder , and he climbs the balcony with the help of his servant , Julia and the nurse ( the servants discreetly withdraw after this ) .

Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
Realism is a prominent aspect of the film , a theme confirmed by Wright in interviews as well as the DVD audio commentary . In a 2007 article , Ursinus College film studies professor Carole Dole argued that Pride & Prejudice is `` a hybrid that embraces both an irreverent realism to which younger audiences are accustomed ( and which reflects the director 's realist aesthetic ) and the classic heritage film 's reverence for country houses , attractive landscapes and authentic period detail '' . Such `` irreverent realism '' included the depiction of Longbourn as a working farm complete with chickens , cattle and pigs ; as Dole explains , `` The agricultural realities of 1790s England are equally evident in the enclosed yard with barn and hay where Lizzie twirls barefoot over the mud on a rope swing '' . Referring to recent adaptations such as 1999 's gritty Mansfield Park , Dole cited Pride & Prejudice as evidence that the heritage film is still around but has `` been transformed into a more flexible genre '' . Jessica Durgan agreed with this assessment , writing that the film `` simultaneously reject ( s ) and embrac ( es ) heritage to attract a larger audience '' .
Pride & Prejudice (2005 film)
In contrast to the five - hour BBC adaptation , Wright compressed his film into two hours and nine minutes of screen time . He remarked that the film is `` obviously about Elizabeth and Darcy , following them and anything that detracts or diverts you from that story is what you have to cut '' . Some of the most notable changes from the original book include time compression of several major sequences , including the departure of Wickham and the militia , Elizabeth 's visit to Rosings Park and Hunsford Parsonage , Elizabeth 's visit to Pemberley , Lydia 's elopement and subsequent crisis ; the elimination of several supporting characters , including Mr and Mrs Hurst , Mr and Mrs Phillips , Lady and Maria Lucas , Mrs Younge , several of Lydia 's friends ( including Colonel and Mrs Forster ) and various military officers and townspeople ; and the elimination of several sections in which characters reflect or converse on events that have recently occurred -- for example , Elizabeth 's chapter - long change of mind after reading Darcy 's letter .
