Description Lovesick teenagers. Strict parents. Rebellion. No wonder modern kids connect so well with Shakespeare's tragic teens. Romeo falls for Juliet. Juliet swoons for Romeo. The young 'star-cross'd lovers' are torn apart by an old family feud. It's a classic boy meets girl, boy loses girl love story.
