Shakespeare in Love creation background

2022-01-26 08:08
Although the script of "Shakespeare in Love" was written by the screenwriters Todd Stoppard and Mark Norman, its original creative inspiration was directly derived from Mark Norman's son Zaryk Norman's strange thoughts. Wonderful idea. In 1989, Zaryk, who was studying Elizabethan drama at Boston University, called Mark Norman and said that he had a peculiar film idea. The owner of the film was just a young Shakespeare in an Elizabethan theater. Old Norman admitted that the idea was great, but he didn't know where to start. Two years later, after a long period of indulgence, Norman finally clarified the main line of the story, that is, if Shakespeare encountered the exhaustion of talent during the creation of the immortal masterpiece "Romeo and Juliet", and the young poet produced the creation of "Romeo" Inspired by Juliet. Norman explained: "Through "Romeo and Juliet", Shakespeare found his own voice. The uniqueness of this drama is the fusion of genres. A love story and comedy eventually evolved into a heart-wrenching tragedy. I began to think. I know where Shakespeare’s creative idea came about."
After much deliberation, Norman thought of making Shakespeare fall in love with a woman who pretended to be a man on stage. "Because Shakespeare is already married, he must have experienced the wind and snow, and "Romeo and Juliet" will definitely have the shadow of his personal experience."
