Literacy Blog #7

          In today's blog I will be casting my own production of the Midsummer Night's Dream. I will be casting Helena, Puck and Titania.

          For Helena's part, I think that Anne Hathaway would be a good actress. Anne Hathaway would be a good actress for Helena because she usually plays an innocent part and sometimes will she fall in love with someone. Like Ella Enchanted, but for innocent parts she often plays in movies like The Princess Diaries, The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, Ella Enchanted and Alice in Wonderland. In Act II, she said "And even for that do I love you the more. I am your spaniel;" (II,i, 202) This line seems like a line that Anne could play. I think that the part Helena kind of match with when she plays Ella Enchanted.

          For Puck, I think that Neil Patrick Harris could play Puck because Neil usually plays a  funny character where he is silly and jokes around like in movies like Beastly, The Smurfs, and A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas.In Act III, he says "A hog, a headless bear, sometime a fire, And neigh, and bark, and grunt ans roar and burn" (III,i,102-103).This quote shows the silliness of Puck which is what Neil seems to act out a lot of times, a silly character.

          For Titania's part, I think that Courteney Cox would be a good actress for that part. I think Courteney Cox would be a good actress for Titania because she usually acts in an action type of movies like Zoom and Bedtime's Stories. In Act II Titania says "The fairy land buys not the child pf me. His mother was a votaress of my order" (II,i, 122-123). This quote show that Titania is like a mother like character and Courteney could play that kind of character.
