Some films remain with you for a lifetime. This film is one of them. Olivia Hussey was every school boys fantasy. Shakespeare comes alive in this film. Beautifully filmed and acted. A must have film by Franco Zeffirelli.

This film deserves 6 gold stars. If ever the word 'chemistry' was used to describe 'star crossed lovers' then it surely applies here. A magnificent romance penned by a pretty good scriptwriter. Get it, watch it and watch it again!
