one of my favourite favourite movies ever. i still remember seeing begnini win his oscar, leaping all over the chairs. this movie is so beautiful & so heartbreaking at the same time. i always cry at the end. (& sometimes throughout) if you haven't seen it, get your hands on a copy NOW you heathen. more info here.
most gorgeous scene in a movie ever. (i may or may not have teared up just watching it to post.)
buongiorno principessa! stanotte t'ho sognato tutta la notte, andavamo al cinema, e avevi quel tailleur rosa che ti piace tanto, non penso che a te, principessa, penso sempre a te!
a lovestruck romeo sings the streets a serenade laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade says something like "you & me babe, how about it?"
juliet says "hey it's romeo. you nearly give me a heart attack" he's underneath the window, she's singing "hey la, my boyfriend's back" "you shouldn't come around here, singing up at people like that... anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
juliet, the dice was loaded from the start & i bet, & you exploded into my heart & i forget i forget the movie song when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong? juliet
come up on different streets, both were streets of shame both dirty, both mean, yes & the dream was just the same & i dreamed your dream for you & now your dream is real how can you look at me as if i was just another one of your deals?
& you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold you can fall for pretty strangers & the promises they hold you promised me everything, you promised me thick & thin yeah now you just say "oh romeo, yeah, you know i used to have a scene with him"
juliet, when we made love you used to cry you said "i love you like the stars above, i'll love you til i die" & there's a place for us, you know the movie song when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong? juliet
i can't do the talk like they talk on tv & i can't do a lovesong like the way it's meant to be i can't everything, but i'll do anything for you can't do anything except be in love with you
all i do is miss you & the way we used to be & all i do is keep the beat & bad company & all i do is kiss through the bars of a rhyme juliet i'd do the stars with you anytime you like
juliet, when we made love you used to cry you said "i love you like the stars above, i'll love you til i die" & there's a place for us, you know the movie song when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong? juliet
& a lovestruck romeo sings the streets a serenade laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade says something like "you & me babe, how bout it?"
