How old was Olivia Hussey when this movie was made? Also, what is the name of the guy who plays Romeo and how old was he? [Olivia Hussey was born April 17, 1951 so she was probably still 16 when the film was being made, but 17 when it was released in 1968. Leonard Whiting was born June 30, 1950 - almost a year older than Olivia.]
Mistakes
When Balthasar tells Romeo of Juliet's 'death', Romeo jumps on his horse and rushes to see her himself. When he rides off, he is not wearing a cape, but in the scenes that follow, he is wearing a black cape. He would not have stopped to put it on if he was in such a hurry. See more...
Trivia
Director Franco Zefferelli had to get special permission to show Olivia Hussey, a teenager at the time, topless in one scene. See more...
