Comparing the Treatment of Death in the Movie Antz and Antony and Cleop

Looking at the Treatment of Death in the Movie Antz and Antony and Cleopatra From the outset sight, Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra and the film Antz appear to hold up under little similarity to one another. Not exclusively does a timeframe of just about 400 years separate the distribution of Antony and Cleopatra from the main communicate of Antz, however the very types of the characters vary also. However, in the two stories the characters’ considerations and activities are shockingly comparable, particularly with respect to the topical components of war and demise. Antony, the moderately aged Roman general in Antony and Cleopatra, and General Mandible, the cruel leader in Antz, both offer the supposition that the life of an individual warrior doesn't make a difference. Rather than attempting to guarantee the security of their warriors, they imperil them by facing extraordinary challenges. Antony continues battling Caesar adrift despite the fact that Enobarbus cautions him that a battle adrift would intend to â€Å"throw away the supreme soldiership [he] has via land â€Å" and to â€Å"give [himself up] just to risk and hazard.† Similarly, General Mandible announces war on the termite state and stays detached when Cutter, one of the warriors, protests that a fight against the termites is self destruction. Antony and Cleopatra presents huge scope demise in a more far off path than Antz. Shakespeare’s play doesn't contain grisly war scenes showing killed men. Demise in Antony and Cleopatra holds a specific nobleness and pride on the grounds that the crowd doesn't see disagreeable snapshots of enduring nor distorted war casualties. Antz, on the other hand, shows the fierceness of war and the distorted bodies of the ants and termites after the fight. Barbados, who spares Z’s life during the fight, is dismantled - at the neck - by the ter... ...mes generally shocking toward the end when General Mandible, in an abrupt uncontrolled fury against Cutter, uncovers his entire remorselessness and yells: â€Å"I am the colony.† From the outset sight one may expect that in Antony and Cleopatra war would be the overwhelming subject, for the Romans are notable as warriors all through their initial history. It might accordingly be amazing to find that Shakespeare’s play concentrates less on point by point fight scenes than Antz, particularly since the last is a children’s film. In any case, possibly the accentuation on war in the film isn't a logical inconsistency to the way that it is fundamentally expected for a youthful crowd. Are not the offspring of today the voters and government officials of tomorrow and would it not be recipient for the eventual fate of humanity if before consenting to a war those voters and legislators helped themselves to remember Barbados’ final words â€Å"Think for yourself†?
