OMG, the 1968 version is such a glorious adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, the best version I have ever seen. :)

Best Movie Ever. And the guy who did the script really had some talent. I recently read Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida. Shakespeare deconstructs The Iliad. I was shocked and disturbed. Bill S was out there.

most of shakespeares plays or historical, like this one, he heard a story of a couple in italy that died somewhat in this way

Actually, I think the story of Romeo and Juliet was a traditional 'Commedia del Arte' presentation in Italy. It was intended to be a comedy! Shakespeare saw the tragedy in the story, and voila.

It is shakespeares stand against petrarchan ideals regarding love
