Items related to Romeo and Juliet
"Romeo and Juliet" is possibly the best known, the most lyrical and most tragic love story ever written. It is one of Shakespeare's earlier dramas with a plot superbly constructed, each incident leading into the next until the final reconciliation of the two old fathers. It is a romantic tragedy rather than a genuine tragedy, such as "Hamlet" or "Othello". Unlike these, though the outcome is no less grievous, it is brought about not by a tragic flaw in the character of the hero but by sheer ill luck. Albert Finney and Claire Bloom play superbly the ill-fated lovers, and in the part of Juliet's garrulous and devoted old nurse and go-between is the inimitable Dame Edith Evans.
