->''"These violent passions can have violent ends, and blaze out like gunpowder in their fiery glory, consuming themselves... and others. The sweetest honey sickens when overate, defeating its own delight. Therefore be moderate. Long-lasting love must be. Love too fast can prove falser than love too slow."''
-->-- '''Friar Laurence'''
The 2013 [[TheFilmOfThePlay stage-to-screen adaptation]] of Creator/WilliamShakespeare's ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet''. It was directed by Creator/CarloCarlei from a screenplay by Creator/JulianFellowes, who significantly modified Shakespeare's dialogue for the silver screen.
In fair Verona, where we set our scene, young Romeo (Creator/DouglasBooth) and Juliet (Creator/HaileeSteinfeld) are scions of two feuding houses: the Montagues and the Capulets respectively. Romeo is smitten with Juliet's cousin, and Juliet's betrothal is in progress. But when Romeo and Juliet fall in love at a Capulet ball, their families' fragile peace is threatened. Romeo and Juliet elope, but grief and tragedy follow.
The film's cast list includes Creator/DamianLewis and Creator/NataschaMcElhone as Lord and Lady Capulet, Creator/TomasArana and Creator/LauraMorante as Lord and Lady Montague, Creator/EdWestwick as Tybalt, Creator/LesleyManville as the Nurse, Creator/TomWisdom as Paris, Creator/ChristianCooke as Mercutio, Creator/KodiSmitMcPhee as Benvolio, Creator/PaulGiamatti as Friar Laurence, and Creator/StellanSkarsgard as Prince Escalus.

!!Tropes:
* CompositeCharacter: Benvolio takes the role of Balthasar in the final acts.
* DanceOfRomance: Romeo and Juliet share a dizzying dance at the masquerade ball, entranced by each other before they even exchange a word of dialogue.
* LoveAtFirstSight: Multiple soft zooms when they first lay eyes on each other establish that Rthey are immediately
* NavelDeepNeckline: Local Veronan hot boy Romeo is introduced sculpting away at some marble while wearing a billowing white shirt that's open all the way to his pants.
* TheQueensLatin: Setting: Renaissance Italy; accents: British.
* PickOnSomeoneYourOwnSize: How the fight between Tybalt and Benvolio is interrupted:
-->'''Montague:''' Tybalt! You argue with a child. Turn now and fight your equal if you dare.
* SacredHospitality: Lord Capulet prevents Tybalt from picking a fight with Romeo because they're all on thin ice with the prince and harming a Montague under their own roof would cross that line.
* SpitefulSpit: A spit induces a swordfight between the feuding Capulets and Montagues at the beginning.
* TrueBlueFemininity: Juliet wears a pale blue dress at the ball, as she is a fine young lady whom Romeo falls in love with.
