Product: Romeo and Juliet [Region 2] (1968)
Rating: 5.0
My all-time favourite: unmatched for its beauty
This movie speaks for itself. It is absolutely timeless for the breathtaking beauty and wide-eyed innocence of Olivia Hussey as Juliet, the lush cinematography, the moving and haunting musical score from Nina Rota, the costumes and fine casting - all combine to create an indelible movie experience. You feel that you are being transported back to the 16th century, and consumed by the inchoate passion and, ultimately, the tragedy of these two 'star-crossed' lovers. This film seens to invade all your senses, and is so all-encompassing that it transcends description.
