Romeo + Juliet
Earlier this week I watched Romeo + Juliet, which is by the same person who later did Moulin Rouge. This film interpretation of the classic play is probably much closer to original bawdy and impassioned Shakespeare, than the sterile stage and film version that were common in recent history. And one of my favorite movies. I've watched it a few times and it is always great.
One thing that did surprise me this time is the gunshot of Juliet's suicide at the end actually made me jump. I don't know if it was the audio changes I've made, or the big screen, or both, but I guess I had really gotten pulled into the movie this time.
