Reading a play gives a very different perspective of the characters. A story will usually have more
detail, but it is told from one point of view. In the play, you are given the words directly from each
characters mouths. There is no narrator in the play, so nothing is simply explained. Everything either
happens right then and there or it doesn't happen. If Twelfth Night was a novel, it would probably be a
lot more detailed and be told from a narrator's perspective. This would make the story a lot less personal
and direct.
The movie follows the play's script directly, but it is still different to visualize it. When reading,
everyone has a different concept of what they imagine a scene to be like. When someone else pictures
it, it's weird for the reader.
