Since this movie had a really solid reputation, I was really eager to check it out. Indeed, many consider this movie as being the best adaptation of this Shakespeare classic. It always thought it was rather weird and actually really embarassing that even though I have studied English at college level (I even have a Master), I have actually never read anything written by William Shakespeare.

Two households, Montagues and Capulets are sworn enemies, this is interesting but what interests me more is that Romeo (a Montague) and Juliet (a Capulet) fall in love! And here they played it very well!

Shakespeare's classic tale of romance and tragedy. Two families of Verona, the Montagues and the Capulets, have been feuding with each other for years. Young Romeo Montague goes out with his friends to make trouble at a party the Capulets are hosting, but while there he spies the Capulet's daughter Juliet, and falls hopelessly in love with her. She returns his affections, but they both know that their families will never allow them to follow their hearts.

Movie Reviews (551-600) (50 movies items)

" The most faithful of all adaptations of the doomed love story. Olivia Hussey make a lasting impression as young Juliet on my psyche and the film has an authentic feel as it was filmed in the streets of Italian Verona and uses costumes and simplistic Middle Age music from the time this story is portrayed. May also be the best Shakespeare adaptation on film that I know of. "
