Fahrenheit 451 script
Has anyone else ever noticed that the script of the play misquotes Shakespeare? In the last scene, one of the characters is teaching Julius Caesar to another and says " and with a monarch's voice cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war." Shakespeare wrote "and let slip the dogs of war." Do you thing Bradbury accidentally misquoted, or is it his subtle way of showing what literature passed down orally will eventually lose compared to books?
