Shakespeares English

Shakespeare writes about the plight of Romeo and Juliet with a lot of empathy and views their tragedy as a result of bad fate, rather than a problem with their characters. We sense from the very start that their relationship is doomed. Romeo and Juliet are portrayed as sincere and virtuous young people who are madly in love, but because of the feud between their families, their relationship has to end. As they won't even consider a separation, the only way out of the situation they find themselves in is by taking their own lives.

Jayde was 17, hated romance novels, romance plays, and everything that hinted at romance, but she didn't know why.

He looks like an Italian American model, but has the intellect of a doctor of literature and every move he sends her into an embarrassing, unexpected hormonal rage.

The movie didn’t do it justice.”
