[edit] More Performers, Please!
I know more famous actresses have done Juliet. Look at the lists on other character pages from the play. These people need to be included. Also, it would be nice if they were categorized into stage, film and television. If it takes too long, I might just do this myself, but otherwise, it'd be nice if someone else could... --02:31, 24 May 2007 (UTC)BeastKing89
[edit] Juliet's language
She uses monosyllabic words with Romeo, and formal language with Paris.[1] -Malkinann 01:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nurse's "betrayal"?
I recently removed the statement that Juliet is "betrayed" by her nurse, changing it instead to "let down". It's true that the nurse's suggestion that Juliet should marry Paris, when she knows that Juliet is secretly married to Romeo, is pretty outrageous; and not only Juliet but also probably the audience and the readers feel disillusioned and let down. But "betrayal" would suggest that the nurse actually pretends to support Juliet, while treacherously reporting to others the secrets with which she has been entrusted. There's no suggestion that the nurse does that. Admittedly, she very likely keeps silent because she doesn't want to get into trouble for the role she played in assisting the lovers, rather than out of any loyalty to Juliet. But I think "betrayed" is still too strong a word to use, and I see that it has been put back. Cowardly Lion (talk) 17:29, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
