The End of Romeo & Juliet

    So to the discussion.
    Today, when I finished up this tale, I was running on very low amounts of sleep. Therefore, I was A) More emotional and moved about the deaths than I would normally be and B) Stuck in a frame of mind where I compared every scene to another one in a movie. For example, in act 5, scenes 1 and 2, I kept thinking of the scene in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers where Arwen's dad tries to convince her to forget Aragorn and head to Valinor, the Undying Lands. Then, at the end, I kept thinking of the end of Les Miserables, specifically, the song "One Day More!" Which is actually very fitting for the final scene...
    Also, Juliet was pretty okay in the end. Clever, ya' know? She sucks up to her dad, and then pulls a fast one behind his back. I can't believe he'd be that stupid to question her sudden change of character. He probably thought that since he was the man and she was his stupid daughter, he had nothing more to worry about concerning her. And the scene with Paris and Juliet meeting at church made me think of Norrington and Elizabeth from Pirates of the Caribbean. He reminded me of her dad. It was so creepy. And I think her dad even said something like that to Juliet once she decided to be a good, obedient daughter again. Something about how he'd be her master/keeper until she married Paris, and then he'd "own her" or whatever. I'd hate to live back then.
    Also, I'm happy the families made up at the end. They could have ended it with a huge battle over whose fault it was, but they choose to simply put it all behind them and start over as loving friends/ in-laws.
    And I bet Lady Montague and Lady Capulet became fast friends. :)
