Romeo and Juliet in Art These two pictures show Romeo and Juliet embracing because they missed each other a lot. antin-makovsky-romeo-and-juliet- 1890s.jpg&imgrefurl= romeo-and-juliet- 1890s/&usg=__wRZ7JgZ2PIbN4b_KrzTTfpqaLbg=&h=730&w=1000&sz=131&hl=en&start=1 1&um=1&itbs=1&tbnid=9XvTpFA4U88kKM:&tbnh=109&tbnw=149&prev=/images%3Fq%3D Romeo%2Band%2BJuliet%2Bart%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Dactive%26tbs%3Di sch:1

Romeo and Juliet Film A 1968 film directed by Franco Zeffirelli with stars Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey. This created the scene for the current movie.

Modern Adaptation A 1996 film directed by Baz Luhrmann that was based on William Shakespeare play. It has stars Leonardo Dicaprio and Claire Danes to form the Romeo and Juliet couple.

Text to Text Romeo is like Hamlet because Romeo and Hamlet are both dominant figures in the play. Romeo has a lover, but Macbeth doesn’t.

Text to World Romeo and Juliet is related to the world because you have to fight to get what you want today and sometimes tragic things happen to stop you from reaching your goals.

Text to Self Connections I relate the story Romeo and Juliet to myself because people in my family have passed away and I have missed them a lot and so did Romeo.
