Compare/Contrast Essay
Directions: You will be comparing and contrasting the movie, “Gnomeo and Juliet” with the play, Romeo and Juliet, that we read in class. In S.E.A. format, you will be providing either 2 similarities and 1 difference OR 1 similarity and 2 differences about MAJOR plot events (ex. fight scene). You may not say that a difference is in the movie the characters are gnomes and in the play, they are real people.
Make sure to take good notes that provide enough detailed information about the major plot events. You want to be able to compare/contrast in detail the events that choose. Also, make sure to take notes through the whole movie because you will go back at the end and evaluate your examples to choose the best/strongest examples for your essay.
