I have watched this movie a lot of times before because I like its story very much. It’s a very tragic love story, but it is also beautiful.
This “Romeo and Juliet” was taken by Baz Luhrman whom I like the best. His movies are each lively and he is good at make a tragic love story, I think. Beauty and the same as the original even if he changes the story’s era to the present day.
Main characters are Romeo Montague, Juliet Capulet, Mercutio, Tybalt, Paris, Romeo’s parents, and Juliet’s parents. Romeo is son of Montague and Juliet is the daughter of Capulet. Mercutio is Romeo’s best friend. Tybalt is Juliet’s cousin. Paris is the governor’s son and he wants to marry Juliet.
The story begins with the sheen of the quarrel of Montague family and Capulet family. Both family are rich and do not get along with each other from ancient times. Romeo and Juliet fell in love without noticing that they are each enemies. The sheen witch they meet for the first time is very romantic. When Romeo was watching at the fish of the water tank, his eyes matched somebody from the other side of the water tank. It was Juliet’s eyes. I think it’s so romantic, silent, beautiful scene. They fall in love by an instant and they kissed. I like their exchange at that time. Juliet said that Thus from my lips, by thine, my sin is purged. Romeo replied that sin from my lips? O trespass sweetly urged! Give me my sin again. And they kissed again. After that, they know that his/her lover is the enemy.
That night, Romeo goes to Capulet’s mansion to meet Juliet. This scene’s words are very famous, beautiful, and romantic! These words are spoken in archaic word. It’s easy to understand to me because I have watched this movie in Japanese translate before and I have also read the original, but I may not understand these lines if it was the first time that I watched this movie.
Next morning, Romeo went to Father Laurence. He was the father who did not seem to be a father because he has a tattoo of the cross to his back and he drank liquor from morning and wore aloha shirt, but he is a good man.
Romeo and Juliet married in the morning by Father Laurence’s help. However, Romeo killed Tybalt because he killed Romeo’s best friend Mercutio after the wedding. The fate of Romeo and Juliet turn bigger after that. Romeo is banished from the country, and Juliet is going to be married off to Paris forcibly by a parent. She hated the marriage with Paris and visited Father Laurence. He suggested an idea for Juliet, but it didn’t succeed by destined mischief. Finally, they are died. It was very sorrowful scene. If Romeo read the letter, if his friend did not see Juliet’s false funeral, and if Juliet woke up early in on second more, they would be happy. There are many “if”.
They died, but the death was drawn very beautifully by Baz Luhrmann. I really like him. His movie attracts us by unforgettable screen constitution and the usage of the color. I think that nobody but him can depict the death filled with sadness and beauty.
Juliet gives a ring witch is carved “I love thee” to Romeo when he killed Tybalt. Actually, it is carved with "I love thee" on the ring which I got from a boyfriend.
