    I was constantly asking why everyone just believed the kids and never assumed they were lying the whole way through The Crucible.

          The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is not that they died for their love; it's that they're too young to realize that their love wasn't worth dying for. It's a cautionary tale about the follies and passion of youth, not a love story.

          Edit: alright, it's about a lot of things.

            I thought it was a cautionary tale about parents who overreact to their children's relationships without realizing that if they just let them be they'll break up on their own.

                If they were related it would be a sweet home Alabama love story.

                  I’ve heard of two KDE families that didn’t like each other….

                          I feel it was made quite clear that the kids testimony was the excuse not the reason.

                            That seems like it still counts as a love story then, or at least "romance" given that that's primarily what it's plot and themes revolve around. What qualifies something to be a love story if not that?

                              It's also a story about how feuds are largely arbitrary, and holding grudges against entire families/bloodlines is just tragically pointless eye-for-an-eye behavior that eventually leads to your children being so blind that they commit suicide for basically no reason.

                              It's a bunch of themes in a trench coat!

                                The tv comedy Upstart Crow brilliantly skewers Romeo & Juliet along with Shakespeare. I forget which episode, but it's only 3 seasons and they're all fantastic.

                                  I know it’s a book shop, but it’s still weird to me putting primacy on reading the script of the play rather than watching it in a theatre. It’s like saying “anyone who’s read the Die Hard novelisation knows how hectic the Christmas holidays can be”.

                                      Well of course. It's a tragedy. Not a romance. That's stated upfront even.

                                        The Baz Luhrmann movie is definitely worth a rewatch.

                                          Especially since Die Hard is based on a novel.
