One is on paper, one is on film!.

Gibson strove to be VERY correct with the text!. A line-by-line reading with the Folger script and Gibson's film script reveals very few differences!.

Or is that not what you meant!? Did you mean intent and interpretation!?

I wouldn't know, in that case!. You would have to talk with both Mel Gibson and William Shakespeare!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Shakespeare is insanely tough to read sometimes but your best bet is to read the play yourself and watch the movie!.
Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
