Well done
I first watched this movie in high school. It opened the world or romance to a sixteen year old boy, and changed my life forever. I wasn't interested in this play my sophmore year in high school until the teacher introduced it through this film. It captivated me then as it does today. Some may have an issue due to the fact that there is one nude scene in the movie. However, I believe that is part of life, and I believe teenagers can handle that. The nude scene is by no means in bad taste, and it passes quickly. The movie is true to the play, and I have never seen a better representation on the big screen. If you want a better representation of this great work you will have to go to see the theatre in person and watch it performed by highly skilled actors. I don't believe you can find a better version on film.
