romeo and juliet moment

"Too early seen unknown, and known too late!"









There are so many things about this scene/ movie/ story that I absolutely love. Fell madly in love with this book in 9th grade when I had to read it for school, and watched the Franco Zeffirelli 1968 version (which I love too). But who can compare to Baz in my little world...not many. So here is a great scene from one of the best stories of all time, and by (in my opinion) the most creative director today who shows viewers such a wonderful and artistic version of the world through his colorful imagination.

I haven't seen this movie in ages but after seeing this clip I can't wait to go guy it! I loved it! It's so incredibly creative and smart. I have to say Leo is a very talented actor and has been since he was young. Clair Danes has always been a good actress as well. They were both magnificent in this movie and made me cry at the end. (although that's not hard to do :) )

LOVE this movie.
I used to watch it at least twice a week. Now I think I'm going to have to revive it.

Awesome movie. Seems like forever but at the same time, just yesterday when it came out. I do believe I will be watching this in the next couple days.

I just barely watched this for the first time. I really liked it, though it was strange to me at first, it didn't take long to transcend. I still felt myself hoping that he wouldn't drink it.
