Lydia Sherwood ... Lady Capulet
Mervyn Johns ... Friar Laurence

Not the best "Romeo and Juliet" on screen, but then none of them out there really....

The leads are played by youngsters in hope of sacrificing some poetic ability for authenticity, but it doesn't really work out.

The text is heavily cut and rearranged without much regard to meter or poetic flow.

Best part of the film are the sets, locations, art direction and costumes; with fine photography by the great Robert Krasker....Directed by Renato Castellani
