Outside Post #17: Midsummer Nights Dream

In our English class we are watching the movie from Shakespeare's play "Midsummer Nights Dream." So far, the play has been about love. Lysander and Hermia, one of the main characters,are in love but they are trying to get her to marry Demetrius. But Helena, another of the main characters, is in love with Demetrius. So Lysander and Hermia ran off to get out of Athens but Lysander and Helena soon followed. Then Oberon had a spell put on Demetrius so he could fall in love with Helena, but he accidentally put on Lysander and he fell in love with Helena. But after a while he put another thing on Lysander that made forget about Helena and went back to Hermia, and Helena and Demetrius got together. Then both couples are about to get married.
