06.03 - Romeo and Juliet Act III, scenes iii-vi

We began today's class by finishing the duel between Mercutio and Tybalt in Baz Luhrmann's version of Romeo and Juliet. Then we discussed how the portrayal compared to the Zeffirrelli version.

Next, we discussed individuals responses to yesterday's question regarding how they would react to Romeo's killing of Tyblat and subsequent banishment from Romeo's own perspective and that of Juliet. Then, we returned to the Zeffirelli version of the play and watched the rest of Act III with a specific focus on what happens with Romeo and Juliet after Romeo's banishment.

Following this we began reading Act IV, scene i together as a class. We will resume with this reading tomorrow.
