Totally. I ended up seeing just about everything he had ever been in over the course of my Leo fangirling. I have to say him (and Titanic) was my first real obsessive obsession. But then again I was 16...i dont know what my excuse is now lol
LOL yeah, I was always kind of too shy to be a real fangirl, but I was definitely obsessed with him back then. I still love him now, of course, but just in a different way.
It's not one of my favorites of Shakespeare either, but stylistically it's PERFECT.
For Baz Luhrmann. I know R & J was one of Shakespeare's earlier, fluffier pieces. I've read almost all his plays and R & J has a place in my heart because it's the first one I read. But otherwise, it's kind of...well, you know haha.
But as far as the movie goes? LOVE IT. I put it in the same category as Amelie and Royal Tenenbaums - they just look incredible.
Romeo + Juliet is one of my favorite movies ever! *loves* When I saw the pilot episode of Lost I was trying to figure out where I knew him from and when I finally did I practically shouted "It's MERCUTIO!!!"
I really thought of him as Mercutio for a long time when Lost first came on lol. That's why I think I don't hate him as much as some people do - because underneath that jerk exterior, he is just waiting to put on a sequin skirt and dance around haha!
I know who's got Titanic!! LOL And Catch Me If You Can! And The Aviator! And Gilbert Grape! And s;ldkfj;slkdfj;lksd my 15-year old self is squeeing right now.
I TOTALLY ALMOST RENTED THAT TONIGHT!!!!!!! Love that movie - though I loathed Leonardo for years because he was all most of the girls could talk about and just on principle I couldn't like him. XD

I had a severe crush on Leo in his Titanic days (who didnt) but I will totally agree with the greatness of him in R&J
