1. Shakespeare is showing that Juliet is like a goddess to him and is superior to him.
In this film interpretation, there are a lot of differences in the film compared to the original play. Firstly the setting has changed so instead of Juliet being on a balcony outside, the Balcony is inside a hall. Another key element that has been added to the scene in the film is a swimming pool which play a big role in the film. In the book, Juliet usually stays on balcony and talks to Romeo for all of the scene but in the film, Juliet comes down to Romeo’s level on the ground.
The characters were not too different between the two different adaptations but there was a few significant differences for example, they actually kiss in the scene. Plus, the nurse interrupts throughout the conversation especially at the end. Romeo also seems to be mor confindent than Juliet because he seems to kiss Juliet and Juliet doesn’t want to kiss her back because she doesn’t want to get caught.
