Movie review 2-3 Romeo and Juliet


I introduce this movie’s characters first. Romeo is a man who is the only son of the Montague family. He falls in love with Juliet. Juliet is the only daughter of the Capulets. Laurence is a monk. He tries to help Romeo and Juliet. The nurse of Juliet also helps them.

There are two houses in Verona, the house of Montague and the house of Capulet. Two houses hate each other. Romeo is the only son of the Montague family. He had a wounded heart first. He loved Rosaline, but it didn’t succeeded. One night the house of Montague’s members went to the party of Capulets. There are many people and they wearing fancy dress. He met the girl, Juliet. They fell in love each other when they first met. But they didn’t know that their origin at first.
They decided to marry. Romeo asked Laurence, because he is a monk. He expected if they married the long feud between the two families would be resolved. He did the marriage between Romeo and Juliet. There are only four people. Romeo, Juliet, her nurse and Laurence. But after the wedding, something happened to Romeo. He was caught up in fight. He killed Tybalt, because his cousin and friend Mercutio was killed by Tybalt. and Romeo was sent into exile. And Juliet’s father told her to marry Paris. Juliet didn’t want to marry to him, so she consulted Laurence. He suggested to her if she dies tomorrow, you don’t need marry with Paris. In other words, she pretends to dies. She took the medicine which received from Laurence. Everyone thought she was dead.

But Romeo didn’t know about the plan. He thought she was dead! He left Verona, so he couldn’t receive the true information. He went to the place where Juliet was. He was cried…He couldn’t have hope after her death. He took poison next to Juliet. Then she woke just after he took poison. She was surprised and despaired of the future. She killed herself with Romeo’s gun. Two families and the people of Verona were bowed by grief.

It was different that I had impression about this movie. This is modern “Romeo and Juliet”. But line is classical words. I think it is easy to listen to this English than to modern English. I want to watch the classical one too. (10468 words)
