I cannot believe Nino Rota did not win the OSCAR for this amazing theme. The music was a character in the story. I was thirteen when this movie came out. I had to have seen this movie ten times at the theater. It was so magical and the music hauntingly beautiful. I cannot believe Oliver the movie won instead. I know it was good but not as good as this. It was just like the movie “Jaws”. It was such a hit critics downplayed it as a big fish tale. No it was an incredible film with an incredible score, at least they gave the score the oscar for that one. Nobody has put out a better Romeo and Juliet than this.
I saw this movie when i was a kid, it touched my soul, now i miss that times... i cried so much for the nostalgia and all the emotion involved in this movie... This will never die <3 someday i will find my Juliet too...
