Product: Romeo and Juliet [Region 2] (1968)
Rating: 5.0
A masterpiece
Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet is not only the best film adaptation of this story ever made, by it 's also one of the finest films I've ever seen. It's a crime that this film didn't win the Oscar. The cinematogprathy is gorgeous, and the script, though regretably omitting some key lines, stays relatively true to the original text. Hussey and Whiting give remarkably genuine and believable performances, despite their youth and inexperience. The rest off the cast is also especially good.Every fan of Shakespeare needs this in their personal collection. Seriously. Click "Buy Now", well, now.
