In Act III of the play, Mark Antony speaks at the funeral of his friend, Julius Caesar.

How is the film presentation of this scene different from the text presentation?


In the video, Antony's appearance is somewhat different from the way he is described in the text.

In the video, Antony's emotions are more pronounced and his facial expressions add emphasis to his speech.

In the video, Antony's speech is longer and provides more background information about Antony's relationship with Caesar.

In the video, Antony conveys mixed feelings about Caesar, but in the text, he respects Caesar.

Answer:

In the video, Antony's emotions are more pronounced and his facial expressions add emphasis to his speech.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark Antonio's speech in the book has a more discretionary nature, presenting the audience with a more interpretive but efficient view to make the reader understand Mark Antony's feelings, thoughts and purposes. On the other hand, the film presents this scene in a more visual way. We don't have access to words that reveal Mark Antony's feeling and thought, but we do have access to his facial expressions, which express to the viewer what goes on in his mind and what he wants to achieve with the speech.

Mark Antony is a character in "The Tragedie of Julius Caesar," a play written by William Shakespeare, where we learn about Julio cesar's government and the conspiracy that culminated in his murder. Mark Antony is one of Cesar's allies and delivers one of the most important speeches in all literature in favor of Cesar and against his conspirators.
