Essay04 Romeo and Juliet

I will introduce about the movie “Romeo and Juliet”. Have you ever heard this title? Maybe, almost all people had heard this title before somewhere. This movie was released in USA in 1996. This story was written by William Shakespeare so this story is William Shakespeare’s original play. He is very popular dramatist and this story is very popular all over the world. “Romeo and Juliet” are names that are so well known thay are a byword with a lot of people. So the names sometimes are used to take a various bywords. This story’s line is also same by original so language used is the original English. But, it is changed to modern style for that this movie’s location spot and clothes. This story’s ending is a tragedy but this story is loved a lot of people.

Next, I will introduce about cast of this movie. This story’s hero is Romeo and the heroine is Juliet. Romeo is played by Leonardo Dicaprio and Juliet is played by Clair Danes. Dicaprio is such a handsome man and Danes is such a beautiful woman. They are so suited to their parts and to each other very much. Romeo was the only son of the Montague’s family and Juliet was the only daughter of the Capulet’s family. Their family were quarreling for a long time. But, Romeo and Juliet fell in love at once when they met on the first day. In the original, Romeo is sixteen years old and Juliet is only fourteen years old so this story is the love story of young couple. This story’s supporting characters are Mercutio, Tybalt, Laurence, Fulgencio Capulet, The nourse and others. Mercutio is close friend of Romeo. Tybalt is enemy for Romeo. Laurence is father of Romeo. He is a monk so he often helps for Romeo and Juliet in the play. Fulgencio Capulet is father of Juliet. The nurse is servant of Juliet.

This story’s main stage is Verona in Italy. There were the Capulet’s family and the Montague’s family. This is the same as above so young people of the family often were fighting. It was so threatening to the people of the city. One day, Romeo and Mercutio and their friends went to party of the Capulet’s family. At that, Romeo met Juliet in look at each other through an aquarium. They were both attracted to each other. But, they knew about each other’s families which can’t allow love because their families are is adversaries. But, they were both attracted to each other very much so they decided to throw away their name. Then, they married in church next day. This movie has famous scene. It is in balcony of Juliet’s house after the party was held. In there, Romeo heard Juliet’s thorough to Romeo. It was profession of love to Romeo. But, Juliet didn’t know about Romeo heard her soliloquy when she took to oneself. But, Romeo was very glad when he heard it. So this scene is very good scene. A final scene is also famous scene. In church, Juliet was sleeping in the scene because she died at once. But, she looked only dying. In fact, she didn’t die. Because she dies temporarily by one medicine so she wakes up again afterwards. But, Romeo didn’t know about it so Romeo drank a poison to chase Juliet. After Romeo drank a poison, Juliet woke up then, Juliet also chased to Romeo so she hit her head by gun. At the last, Romeo and Juliet died. They crossed each other. It is so regrettable for audience. This story’s ending is so sad. But, Romeo and Juliet’s death brought about reconciliation between Capulet’s family with Montague’s family. So it is so good.

I’ve watched this movie before but the last scene always gives me shock very much. This story’s Romeo is so cool and Juliet so I like them very much. If you haven’t watched this movie, please watch this movie. I recommend this movie. (634words)
