Romeo and Juliet: Act V Scene III

In this scene the Montagues and Capulets are known to be worst enemies throughout the play. Even though the two families were enemies, Romeo, a Montague and Juliet, a Capulet were still lovers throughout the play. However after the tragic death of the two characters, the Montagues and Capulets started to be less hatred towards each other. The two families were deeply sorry for each other after Romeo and Juliet's death. This shows how much emotion death of a family member can cause.

Act 1 Scene 1 add title

Act I Scene 1 insults: When the Montagues and the Capulets are fighting each other with out understanding why they are fighting in the first place. The two families remind me of my brother quarrelling with one of his friends over a small subject that drags on for many minutes. In the play it is much more dramatic since many lives are endangered in the play. This causes a simple scene to be much more dramatic. My younger brother and his friends make simple situations into dramatic ones, just like in "Romeo and Juliet."
