I’ll be honest. I usually stop reading Julius Caesar after Act 3 and show the movie for Acts 4 and 5 because everything after act 3 is just falling action. And there’s a lot of falling.

Takeaways

  1. I’m not sure the play’s worth teaching/reading after Act III. There are a couple good movies you can show on YouTube to give students the ending they crave.
  2. Shakespeare depicts Marc Antony as a cut throat politician.
  3. Back-stabbing is a topic high school students can relate to.
