      Straight men cancer, bullying, objectification and hatred after trauma are the same all over the world

      In the 1968 version of "Romeo and Juliet", there is a plot of Romeo's relatives and friends molesting Juliet's wet nurse. Juliet asked her wet nurse to send a message to Romeo, because the wet nurse is fat, ugly and has an accent, so Romeo's relatives and friends molested her collectively, Especially mercutio, because he has been hurt by a woman's love (there is a hint in the film), he has hatred for women in his heart;

      Two thousand years of Valentine's Day is also the Paris premiere of "Romeo et Juliette", which shocked the entire French and even the entire Western literary and art critics at that time. Some people even predicted that "Romeo and Juliet" will become the most classic and outstanding musical in the entire West in the next 50 years, and unless there is another extraordinary genius, it will be almost impossible to surpass.

      The overture is an exceptionally beautiful French monologue: "All...

      good night a thousand times

      I just finished watching this classic, and it
      happened that it was 2:14 in the morning. On April 23, before Shakespeare's anniversary,
      I just bought a full set of Shakespeare's script. It is said that I got into the pit because of "Romeo and Juliet" because I am a fan of Xiao Li. I watched the 1996 version first and was deeply shocked by the tragedy of the lines and the whole story. It is far more beautiful, sad and grand than I imagined.
      After going into the pit and making up...

      Sure enough, it was the most perfect interpretation of the music. The music is very good. By the way, if the messenger delivers to Romeo quickly, he won't die! ! Plus that quick-mouthed thief, what kind of crooked news, what kind of crappy letter! ! Caused Romeo to die without knowing the...

      611@Baimeihui. A smooth, sincere, delicate and perfect version of Roo. I listened to What is a Youth very early (marked as wanting to watch it eight years ago - -), and when I watched it, I found that this almost aria theme was used as a fancy variation, and the audiovisually has a more continuous crescendo of fate. Special bonus points for casting and serving. Beauty and truth are getting colder, and tears are invincible.

      The movie itself is nothing special, but the cast of the two actors is fantastic. Love at first sight at the dance and mutual expressions under the moonlight are so beautiful...what is a...

      Beautiful. ——"My former love was false and not true, but now I see a truly peerless beauty." Many of the actors' inner appearances are very beautiful, and the director's explanation is a great...

    Movie Highlights

    Franco Zeffirelli must be authorized by the local law enforcement agency to allow Olivia Hersey, who is under twenty years old, to wear topless clothes during the shooting.
    During the filming of the film, director Franco Zeffirelli paid close attention to Olivia Hersey's figure and ordered the staff not to give her any pasta on the set.
    Olivia Hersey was slightly overweight during the audition, and Franco Zeffirelli removed her from...

    Evaluation action

    Franco Zeffirelli used the highly flexible photography skills of the "real movie" genre to shoot the film's movements-whether it's fighting, dancing, or talking in love, with extremely smooth and full footwork. However, he handled Shakespeare’s verses extremely crudely. The poetic romantic essence of Shakespeare disappeared in the interpretation of passionate action. This is just a romance film composed of handsome men and beauties,...
