The Modern Version Of Romeo And Juliet's Love

The modern version of Romeo and Juliet’s love is more believable than the on depicted in the original movie. This is because the modern version uses scenes such as the meeting, balcony and death scene to portray a sense of true love. From beginning to end many scenes in the modern movie have the ability to bring viewers to tears and make them feel as if they are apart of the couples love themselves.

To begin with the meeting scene, the writers of the movie used a comical but heartfelt manner when bringing Romeo’s eyes to Juliet’s. This allows viewers to feel as if their “meeting” was meant to be. Where as in the original movie the meeting scene felt forced and was poorly portrayed, on the actor’s part. Romeo spots a fare lady dancing at her family’s party. He is in awe over her beaut. Unseen, he follows her until they meet face to face through a glass wall. Romeo and Juliet lock eyes and exchange a passionate kiss. Romeo speaks to Juliet as if she is the love of his life. This scene uses the actor’s facial expression and intimacy to bring a raw and ardent feel.

This scene uses Romeo’s actions of coming to Juliet’s balcony, with the intentions of only seeing her, to show a love at first sight theme. Followed by Juliet’s numerous encounters in the pool with Romeo, the movie goes to show that, unlike the original movie, Romeo and Juliet connect and talk about their feelings and intentions, rather than sending off an awkward vibe by un-passionately kissing on screen. This alternative view of the two lovers taking a moment to talk about things and understand what they think they have gives viewers a realistic feeling of the way things happen in
