Remarkable Restoration
"Romeo and Juliet" (1968) is an amazing restoration of the theatrical release. I saw the film when it came out. These brilliant colors are faithful to Zeffirelli's production. I own the film in VHS, but have never seen it with such visual intensity.Perhaps the most famous line in the English language spoken by Juliet: "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?..."I believe you know Juliet Capulet and Romeo Montague, two teens from Verona, Italy. Franco Zeffirelli cast teenagers Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whiting in the leading roles. The 60s film was incredibly well done. Of course, this is Shakespear's 1592 stage romance. I know you will be pleased to own this DVD.Notes: this film (c)1968 Paramount Pictures. This DVD is in the original widescreen format.
