Over the last few decades, various films and television shows have started to introduce strong female protagonists with a story arc that does not revolve around its male counterparts. To truly test the extent of involvement of female characters in a film, the Bechdel-Wallace Test or as many know it as the Bechdel Test was created. The Bechdel Test was named after Alison Bechdel, the creator of the comic strip “Dykes to Watch Out For” in a segment called “The Rule”. For a film to pass the test, it must meet the following criteria: 1) “Have at least two named women 2) The women speak to each other 3) Their conversations are about anything but, the man” If the answer is yes to all the criteria, the film passes the Bechdel Test.

In my essay I will be writing about one of Shakespeare iconic plays, Romeo and Juliet, it is a tragic tale of young love and death. I will be analysing the progress of 13 year old, from being young and innocent to a mature young woman. At the start of the play, Juliet is first introduced by her father, Lord Capulet. Shakespeare has done this to remind us that women in the Elizabethan Period didn't have a voice, so Juliet's voice is her father. Juliet is presented to us when her father referees to her as 'a stranger in the world' this suggests that Juliet is innocent and untainted, she doesn't know what the world will bring for her
The Reality of the real world destroys child innocence The World is cruel and unfair. Early in life I learned about the many conflicts of the middle east, I also learned about disgusting cases of corruption and certain double standards like man will always be assumed to be pedophile that show that the world is not a pretty place. This is also shown in the many pieces of texts that we have read in english class this year. In these pieces of texts, the characters are exposed to power abuse, they are exposed to violence, and they are exposed to the loss of other.
According to Derek Landy, a famous irish author and screenwriter, “ Violence is never the answer, until it’s the only answer.” This message stays true in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. In this dreamful play, there are two passionate lovers. On one hand there is Romeo, belonging to the Montague family, and on the other hand there is Juliet, belonging to the Capulet family. Unfortunately, for Romeo and Juliet, their families have been fighting in a never ending feud against each other.
Through the predominant influences of certain characters, inconsistency of decision making, and secretiveness amongst the characters, these events quickly lead to the grievous incident of the play. All the way from past hatred and persuasive friends, to emotionally driven decisions such as Romeo’s desire to be married and his vengeance, the play concluded with potions that provoked counter outcomes. Romeo and Juliet displayed the risks they were willing to take in the name of love, but in the end, poor choices took responsibility for the continuous occurrences that lead to dreadful ends; however, opposed to the idea of fate, or a stronger force guiding the character’s actions. With this, the play closed with the poisonous idea of the love that Romeo and Juliet shared, including all that they would sacrifice to have a chance at a life
