This is a movie review of Othello, one of the most famous love tragedies. The project

consists the setting, synopsis, major characters, staging and film editing, theme,

personal reaction, background information, comments, and symbolism.

Othello is set at the time of the wars between Venice and Turkey in late sixteenth century.

Cyprus, the setting for most of the action, was a Venetian outpost attacked by the Turks in 1570

The original story is that a Moorish general is deceived by his ensign, Iago, who hated Othello

because he was not assigned as his lieutenant. Iago plotted the entire story just to convince

Othello that his wife is unfaithful by having affairs with Cassio, the lieutenant. Finally, Othello

believed it and killed his wife and himself too.

Othello (Laurence Fishbourne) is the hero and the protagonist of the movie. He's a Christian

Moor and the general of Venice. He's powerful and is respected by people around him. But he

movie, it will be awesome. I recommend that people read the lines first then watch the movie.

Military heroism v. love is a main theme in the play. Othello is a soldier. Desdemona fell in love

The moving of the play is pretty fast. The vision effect shows us a triumph of battle and

Desdemona (Irene Jacob) is the daughter of the Venetian senator Brabanzio. She married Othello
