Romeo.Juliet is the title of a 1990 film version of William Shakespeare's classic play "Romeo and Juliet".
 It was made by American producer, director and cinematographer, Armando Acosta (also credited as Armondo Linus Acosta and Armand Acosta) using the feral cats of Venice, New York City, and Ghent as actors, with the voices dubbed by some of the greats of the English theatre including Ben Kingsley, Maggie Smith, Vanessa Redgrave, Robert Powell, Francesca Annis, Victor Spinetti, Quentin Crisp, and John Hurt.
 The score of the film features Serge Prokofiev's 'Romeo and Juliet Ballet' as performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, André Previn conducting and an original theme composed by Armando Acosta and Emanuel Vardi, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Barry Wordsworth.
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet may be one of the most-screened plays of all time.
 The most notable theatrical releases were George Cukor's multi-Oscar-nominated 1936 production "Romeo and Juliet", Franco Zeffirelli's 1968 film "Romeo and Juliet", and Baz Luhrmann's 1996 MTV-inspired "Romeo + Juliet".
 The latter two were both, at the time, the highest-grossing Shakespeare films.
 Cukor featured the mature actors Norma Shearer and Leslie Howard as the teenage lovers while Zeffirelli populated his film with beautiful young people, and Baz Luhrmann produced a heavily cut fast-paced version aimed at teenage audiences.
Eiji Tsuburaya (円谷 英二 , Tsuburaya Eiji ) (Eiichi Tsumuraya (圓谷 英一 , Tsumuraya Eiichi ) ; July 10, 1901 – January 25, 1970, in Sukagawa, Fukushima) was a Japanese special effects director responsible for many Japanese science-fiction films and television series, being one of the co-creators of the "Godzilla" series, as well as the main creator of the "Ultra Series".
 During his rise to post-war fame in the wake of "Godzilla" (1954), many press accounts gave Tsuburaya's birthdate as July 7, which falls on the high day of the star festival, "Tanabata", a sign of good fortune.
 This is akin to an American saying that they were born on the Fourth of July.
 Tsuburaya's actual birthdate of July 10 has been verified by his last surviving son, Akira, and the company Eiji founded, Tsuburaya Productions, as the official entry in the Tsuburaya Family Register, in researching the official English-language biography on this important figure of cinema, "Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters", Chronicle Books, 2007.
