"Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?"
Review of Romeo And Juliet (DVD) by oldchem

Advantages: Breathtakingly beautiful
Disadvantages: None

...Leonard Whiting, just 17, as Romeo and Olivia Hussey, a mere14 as Juliet. This makes them more or less the actual ages of Shakespeare's characters. I thought that both Whiting and Hussey were superb actors (even at their young ages) and they play well off each other. These roles were debut ones for both young actors. Having two young, attractive actors playing the lead parts did attract a lot of younger audiences. I was a teenager at this time ... Read review

Nothing Beats The Original
Review of Romeo And Juliet (DVD) by PhoenixLovexoxo

Advantages: Enjoyable, The actors did such a brilliant job that you could watch it over and over.
Disadvantages: The camera Techniques are quite old and the special effects are just ok.

I first watched the 1996 Romeo and Juliet Before this and thought the 1996 one was quite good but I got curious after reading many reviews on the Old Romeo and Juliet and decided I wanted to watch it, so i bought it and watched it and for the first time I realised how the 1996 Romeo and Juliet wasnt as good as i thought it was, as the old one had so much more emotion in and It was so much easier to understand and all the actors and actress did a brilliant ...
