Directed by Franco Zeffirelli, starring Michael York (add more)
Continuity: When Romeo jumped from the balcony after talking to Juliet, his tights were ripped, it zoomed in a bit, back out and his tights were fixed. When Juliet came back from talking to the nurse his tights were ripped again.
Continuity: The girl dressed in a pastel pink and gold dress, the one that Benvolio likes, is behind him talking in the shot that he's looking out into the dance floor. But in the next shot, the girl comes out from another area, then again in the shot after that, behind Benvolio.
Revealing: There is a high rise, modern building in the background during the opening fight.
Continuity: Near the end of the Capulet's party, the revelers form a circle around a minstrel and ask him to sing. Before he begins, he peels off his mask and tosses on the floor. The next shot from a distance shows Juliet running towards the circle, and the minstrel is still wearing his mask. The following shot shows the minstrel up close again with his mask off.
Audio problem: While Romeo and Juliet are kissing on the balcony, Juliet is speaking while canoodling at one point, but then she turns her head and her lips are not moving.
