The Tragedy of Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare
Reflection of Romeo and Juliet
![]()
I do not know if I'm the only person who's never seen Romeo and Juliet before, but I've always heard a lot about that story. When I saw the movie for the first time, I was confused because I didn't know who Romeo and Juliet were. This story is about love and family. Juliet and Romeo's family were enemies, but Juliet still fell in love with her only true love. When Romeo sees Juliet for the first time, he feels that she is the woman he loves; in her first kiss, they realize there is love between them. Julieta's mother wanted her to marry a rich and educated man because she came from a good family. Julieta was determined not to marry that boy she didn't even know or feel attracted to. At one point in the story, Romeo confronts Juliet's cousin, and this leads to the death of one of Romeo's dearest friends, and he feels super bad and devastated. Romeo only wants revenge, leading him to kill Juliet's cousin. When Juliet discovers this tragedy, she only wonders why Romeo has killed her cousin, but she does not judge him; her love is more potent than anything. That night, when that incident happened, Romeo went to see Juliet and explained how things were. Juliet felt calmer knowing that Romeo was fine and nothing terrible had happened to him, but the police were looking for him because of the tragedy. On the same day, Juliet discovered she had to marry on a Thursday with the man she neither loved nor wanted. Julieta and her father created a plan so that Julieta would not have to get married. The father had given her a chemical so that Julieta would take it, and everyone would think that she was dead. When they suddenly entered Julieta's room, she was sprawled on her bed, and the plan had worked. Everyone thought she was dead. She was going to wake up before hours. But the message that got to Romeo was that she had died when she had not. Romeo decided to run to where she was, and they both died together.
In conclusion, in this story, we can explore how strong it is when you like someone or know someone who is everything to you. This end could have been different if Romeo didn't die. It was an excellent movie. When you see the first part, you feel intrigued and want to know what will happen next until the end.
