OH! I saw Romeo and Juliet today (The Leonardo DiCaprio version, which was thrice as awesome as all the other ones combined) because not only does it take place in modern times with guns and cars and shit, but Mercutio dresses in drag! I'm talking all out. Stilettos, blonde wig, sequined mini-skirt with matching top, and then he gets Romeo high and Romeo starts hallucinating and sees Mercutio dirty-dancing with some guy in a suit. It was fucking sweet! But then it got all depressing and Mercutio died.
I don't get it. I've seen Romeo and Juliet a million times, and I always cry! I mean, I know what's gonna happen, but when the lovebirds off themselves I start sobbing!
I think it's because it has Leonardo DiCaprio in it. I cry in every one of his movies. Titanic? Cried. The Man in the Iron Mask? Cried. Blood Diamond? Cried. Damn him and his wickedly awesome hair!
