Also I've seen the play on one of the big theaters here in Sweden, it was very touching actually seeing it happen in front of you!

I hope you enjoy it. (:I will be reading it in English after Night. So, in about 1-3 weeks. I'm looking forward to it, though.
Yeah it is amazing, I must admit.Haven't gotten around to reading this one even though I've read many other of Shakespear's plays... but I really love the movie from 1997 with Lenoardo Di Caprio and Claire Danes. I remember seeing it when I was quite young (around 10-11) and have loved it since. Very beautiful adaption.

o deary me. xDProbably one of my least favourite Shakespeare tragedies, because the two lead characters annoy the hell out of me. Having said that, any Shakespeare is pretty damned good and I certainly don't dislike it

I read the original play for my English literature list...I love Shakespeare, and I adore R&J. It's the most amazing love story of all time, if you ask me
. I even know the prologue and epilogue by heart...the English is so beautiful, and so is the story...truly remarkable
. I love Luhrmann's adaptation too, it's great how he put it in a modern era and still used the original texts.
I love Shakespeare, too the words he use are so nice and he had used the time to get them right so you can right them down so easily. And i can the Prologue by memory, ok most of it^^
I think it is timeless, because the Feelings are true and i think the end is making it even better. Because it shows that these passion can bring you down to the Bottom. It may not be "Real" Love, it may be they just wanted to bed each other... no there was more in it. They had there night. They are a kind of obsessed. And what is "real" Love? Love is as colorful as live.
And one last thing, the end is better than the one in Ovids - Pyramus and Thisbe, if some have read it. But of course this is the Mother of Juliet and her Romeo.
(some more thing, have you ever noticed the names history? There are old, both. Romeo from Rom the City of the World and Juliet from the gens Julia, a famous gen because Caesar and the first Emperors was from this gens.)

I've never read it (though i totally will)... Confession time: I only watched the 1996 version for leonardo dicaprio but I'm pretty interested in it now.
