The Best Romeo and Juliet
This is without a doubt the best filmed Romeo and Juliet ever. It was a stroke of genius casting the roles of the leads with actors of approximate age of the Shakespeare characters. And did they shine. Juliet was the sun. Although that line was clipped from movie version. I believed Romeo was taken with his amour Juliet so much he would die for her. Tears were streaming down my cheeks in the last scene. The last time I had seen this movie was 1968. This was my second viewing and it is was as beautiful as the first time I saw it. One thing that surprised me was the nudity. I don't remember seeing it the first time around. Probably censored. Okay that's it. See it and enjoy.Palmer
