... quick to fight with anymember of the Jets or Tony. However, Anita, Bernardo's girlfriend, approved of their love because she just wanted to see Maria happy like the Nurse. Overwhelmed by all the fighting, Baby John was much like Tybalt's peace keeping foil character, Mercutio. Lastly, Doc tried to help Tony and stop all the insanity around him like Friar Laurence. In both stories, comic relief occurred to keep the audience interested, but the two plays usually differed in their approaches to comedy.

... long before he became famous in his later movies. He based the film on his movie that he used as his graduate project and thesis. It was his first attempt at directing and producing a Hollywood film. His goal was to create a film that would show the future state of the world if it was to continue on its path of the search for perfection of everything. He shows the future as a place that many people would probably not want to live or to be associated with. Lucas shows that everyone will be the same.

When Cassio takes hold of Desdemona’s hand before the arrival of the Moor Othello, Iago says “With as little a web as this I will ensnare as great a fly as Cassio” (Act II, Scene I, line 163).
