Mercutio is one of the main characters of the movie William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, which is a painful love story, because It is a girl who meets a boy where both families are enemies, however is an unspeakable love becomes an echo and their love starts even thought they just know, they met through much difficulty. In the film Mercutio is Romeo’s best friend, even in the film only leaves at least four scenes, is a character who steals scene, and develops the role of challenge, ie with their jokes and teasing of others, make this not a just a clown but is a character-minded and intelligent who knows at what point should act and what is not.
First of all, I saw three different versions of Romeo x Juliet, one was played by Leonardo Dicaprio and Claire Danes, the second was an anime production, and the last was Shakespeare in love and read the book from it. So I have many different interpretations about the character of Mercutio, in all them Mercutio is a character that supported Romeo, despite not being a Montague was for him, but before dying Mercutio curses both families, for all the suffering they cause, and not only among themselves but also external people.
In the film Mercutio, is a comic realese, is a character with great ingenuity and courage, but crazy, funky and tough. My first impression when I saw the character of Mercutio, was what happens with him, because it begins with his jokes to Romeo, and talking with his double meaning, mocking all those words that constantly tests the true meaning to them, through his frequent verbal games. Also is a wise counselor of all Romeo's love affairs, always makes fun of how easily falls in love, and what he should do, instead of suffering from unrequited love.
In contrast, Mercutio from the anime is a character that is bold, ambitious, and very sarcastic, just looking for convenience and want to seize power of the Montagues. Romeo x Juliet is based on the classic work of William Shakespeare, which tells the same story of two young lovers, only raises the conflict with the two families is the throne of Neo Verona, where he was governed by the Capulets, but Montague took the throne by force and the king's daughter flees to then take the throne, is hidden for 14 years, and during the time of the Montagues government, people have suffered all forms of abuse, and she to live that becomes a national hero, but she know Romeo and both fall in love, but the love that they have is huge, but Juliet must make a difficult decision, whether to choose the love of Romeo or whether to save all the people of Neo Verona's cruel abuse of their current governor. After all this enormous parentheses, Mercutio is one of seeking to obtain the throne, it makes it banished Romeo, Romeo's father convinced that he is one of those who follow their beliefs and convictions, is the opposite to Mercutio film and play, but has the same purpose, at the beginning was to be the faithful companion of Romeo and support, and has the same tragedy, he died.
In addition Mercutio has a tragedy death, in the film Shakespeare’ Romeo + Juliet, in a scene from Shakespeare in love, in the book of Shakespeare and anime is Mercutio's death at the hands of Tybalt Romeo who, having insulted plunges his sword into Mercutio unfortunate despite attempts Romeo to bring order, standing in the middle. The end of Mercutio is a sad ending, where the mortally wounded blamed the rivalry of the two families and be cursing the cause of his death, and continued with his sarcastic jokes and comments.
