Anybody else love this movie? (You know, the one with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Daines.) I love the story anyways, but this version of the movie is so powerful. I cry every time I watch it, but I love it!!
 
One of my FAVORITES! Never really understood it till I saw this version. I especially love the symbolism in the gas station scene.
 
aw, i love that movie too! i had such a thing for leo back then! claire danes was such a natural in that role. i really loved all of the water scenes, them seeing each other through the fish tank, her hair all wild around her face in the bath tub, the pool scene.. it''s such a beautiful movie.
 
One of my favorites also!!!!I love that fish tank part too. They play this beautiful song and then you believe love at first sight really happens

....Sorry for my corny moment.
 
Totally one of my faves since it came out.....

I was even guilty of having the Leo poster from that movie when I was younger....lol

Baz Luhrmann makes a kick A** film...I also love Moulin Rouge (he directed that as well)
 
Yes, Baz Luhrmann rocks!!! He''s coming out with the film, Australia, so I''m interested to see that.
 
I LOVE this movie. I especially love the song, Kissing You, by Des''ree that plays when they first see each other. It''s an amazing song and it really made the scene.

DITTO! I adore that song! Really emotional!
 
I love the movie, Baz, and that song too!

Every year that I teach 9th graders and we read the play, I show that version of the movie. Most students (even the boys!) enjoy it, although there are always a few who hate anything that isn''t traditionally Shakespeare...
 
Love that version. It makes shakespeare so accesible IYKWIM. the visuals are stunning. That along with " the unbearalbe lightness of being" with daniel day lewis are two of my favourite movies.

ahh, wish I had a dvd of either to watch tonight.

Yeah I really like the newer version, it''s pretty cool I think. I know I loved it when I was a kid, but I still like it.

One of my all time favorites!

It''s part of Baz Luhrmann''s ''Red Curtain Trilogy''.

The movies are:
Strictly Ballroom
Romeo+Juliet and
Moulin Rouge (my all time favorite movie)

I love the imagery in all of his films. I loved the whole Catholic/Mexico City imagery in Romeo+Juliet. I''m actually thinking of having my DJ play ''Angel'' that song that''s playing with the party starts in the movie and Claire Danes is watching the fireworks. The soundtracks are amazing as well! (2 volumes!)

I''m a huge fan!
 
This movie reminds me of my college days! A bunch of girls crammed into a dorm room crying over Leonardo

I love the soundtrack and still listen to it occasionally. To be honest, I have never been a big fan of Claire Danes. Dunno Why..
