I know! But, I guess if she woke up in time it wouldn't have been a tragedy, would it? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I love this movie. Definitely a great version of Romeo & Juliet - my favourite, personally. The cast was spectacular and Baz is just a genius!

Well, I knew how the story ended, so I can't say I was shocked, but it does have that edge-of-your-seat quality to it, regardless.

Oh and once they do ... Enjoy! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I love both soundtracks, but the second one (with mostly instrumentals on it) is my favorite. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] __________________

I'm not sure. Hopefully, sometime this week. Thanks [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
Yeah, I used to have one of the soundtracks. I believe it was the first one and I loved it. That was a long time ago though and we movied since then, so I have no idea where it is now. I used to have the video too, hehe. |

I just love Shakespeare in general(I was a theatre kid) and I once did R+J in the style of 1920's prohibition mafia(I was Juliet).
but this was always a fun movie version for me. hmm. I think I'll make some R+J movie goodies. anyway, yeah, I had the second soundtrack too, and I really liked it alot, but I lent it to my partner for some project my freshman year of high school and she left it at some uncle or something's house and I never got it back!! aw, I'm feeling so nostalgic for movies today! __________________

That's really cool!
I was never really a big Shakespeare person, but this movie just really had an impact on me (maybe the whole "Leo madness" factor had something to do with it, hehe). Ooh, I would love to see some of your WSR+J avatars! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ 03-17-2004: Message edited DCreekFreak ] |

Oh wow...I love this movie a lot... [img]smilies/sigh.gif[/img]
This is my favorite adaptation of the play, period, in life, ever. Baz Luhrman is a creative genius, and I can't get enough of Leo and Claire's chemistry together on-screen. I always wanted them to be dating in real life... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Getting to the point, the sad truth of the matter is that I can recite large portions of the play to begin with because I had an Oral Interpretation project from 9th grade that I still remember to this day -- and that was almost 5 years ago. Heh...yeah. But what got me started about thinking on that is the thread title -- one of the best scenes in the play and the movie. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Well I'll stop rambling now...point is the movie is excellently made, and I hate how Leo never gets any recognition for any of his roles -- it's always irked me and it irks me still. Limey Hollywood bastards... [img]smilies/pout.gif[/img] |
