Shakespear has many infulences in todays modern plays and movies and I am going to talk about the movie She's the Man. In She's the Man it has mistaken identity and a love triangle. In this movie a girl pretends to be her brother because the girls soccer team got cut. During this her brother is really in London. Pretending to be her brother cause many problems. She is in love with her roomate, her roomate is in love with a girl who is in love with her(who really thinks she is a boy but she is only pretending to be a boy.)
This clearly shows that this has Shakespearian theme and plot in it because he always had love triangles and mistaken identity's in his plays. The creators I think had realized how great the Shakespearian theme was and created one of the biggest copycats of his themes. They used love triangle, mistaken identity and more to make the plot of this movie all from Shakespear's ideas.

I really enjoyed reading your thoughts on She's the Man and how it relates to Shakespear. I agree with you 100% because that is what I wrote about too! I also think that She's the Man is like Shakespear's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Haha. Well good job :)
