'Romeo
&
Julius' (directed by Sabine Hviid) stages Shakespeare's tragic romance
with two young boys in the main parts Like Romeo & Juliet Love is
the key to life. Dare we not, we dare not life. But why not dare to
love? The film is about the feeling that confuses, buckles legs, giving
breath, but also makes us terribly alive. It is about to reach that
mark a corner of eternal flow - before comfort life or own inhibitions
take over.
Reality interferes with the setup of
Shakespeare's play, What is meant by a level of abstraction in the film
- theatrical piece about the impossible love, suddenly becomes very
real because it is a valve for some emotion that is beginning to grow
between the two. And the scenes thus become even more vulnerable and
difficult to play.
