"Two households both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life;
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death bury their parents' strife"
There have been many film adaptations of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". I have to say of all that I have seen I think that Zeffirelli's 1968 version is by far the best.
"Romeo and Juliet" was the third consecutive Shakespearean play for the Italian director, following a television production of "Much Ado about Nothing" and the Elizabeth Taylor-Richard Burton film, "The Taming of the Shrew". Zeffirelli later directed "Othello" and "Hamlet", but his most ...
Baz Luhrman's 1996 modern update of Shakespeare's classic Romeo and Juliet met with instant success. It combined trademark intense visuals from Luhrman with an impressive musical score, and some great up and coming actors.

Claire Danes is really good as the wide eyed and innocent Juliet, who likes what she sees and dreams of the impossible. She and Leo together are a good lead pair of actors, and are brilliantly ...
Advantages: Dramatic irony, some exciting action. Disadvantages: Bad acting, language and setting clash together alot.
Romeo and Juliet, as we all know, is a classic tale of love and tragedy, written by William Shakespeare. The love between the two characters - in this film played by Leonardo DeCaprio and Claire Danes, is strictly forbidden and is made all the more intriguing by the fuge between the couples' two familes; the Capulets and the Montagues. In this modern version of the famous story, director Baz Luhrmann adds a special twist to mix things up a little.
The main plot of the original story is followed, with a young lady named Juliet living with her parents; the Capulets, and a man named Romeo from the Montagues. One day they meet and fall in love with each other, but because of the hate bewteen the two families, they know that if they are caught there will be huge trouble. However, their love is too strong for them to be seperated, and they ...
