Director Bas Luhrman did a superb remake of Romeo and Juliet. I remember when the movie first came out, I went with my friends to watch the movie in the movie theater. I fell in love even more with Shakespeare's. The women in this film are portrayed just like many women in this era were. The men were dominate and the women needed to obey their father or husband. The females like Juliet weren't able to choose their mate. A suitable man was chosen by the father. The women also marry at a very young age. Juliet was a female that was very strong minded and didn't want to follow her father's orders. Juliet chose a path that at the end was death but I believe that she was happy because she was with her love Romeo in a peaceful place. They went to heaven a place where their parent's hate couldn't reach or destroy their love for one another.
