Romeo And Juliet (1968)

Shakespeare's tragedy of star-crossed lovers has been brought to the screen more than once, and this hub gathers the versions worth watching for more than the poetry. Olivia Hussey's turn as Juliet remains a touchstone of the story's screen history, while Jessie Buckley has lent her own presence to the material in a later adaptation. Between them sits 1 scene archived here, a glimpse of the physical intimacy Shakespeare only implied on the page. It's a small but notable slice of the Romeo and Juliet legacy, spanning generations of actresses who took the romance somewhere the stage never could.
