Not only, as you said, are the aesthetics just gorgeous all-round, particularly the costumes and architecture, but the cast is also fantastic I especially liked the actors they cast as Benvolio and Mercutio.Īs for the changes to the original language, in my first viewing I actually didn't notice it at all. Having seen the three most recent versions as well as a brilliant live stage play, although all four have their good and bad points, if pressed I would have to name this 2013 film as my favourite. As a self-professed Shakespeare fan, while I can very easily understand the aversions people have to this play in the ordinary light of day, I invariably always get swept up into the achingly beautiful romance and bittersweet tragedy of this story every single time.
