Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which part did Leonardo DiCaprio play in this movie?

Answer: Romeo

DiCaprio vaulted to stardom as Jack Dawson in "Titanic", and has also appeared in "The Gangs Of New York" and "Catch Me If You Can". DiCaprio was not a good choice to play Romeo. In my opinion, he never quite got the hang of the Shakespearean language.

2. Who plays Juliet?

Answer: Claire Danes

Claire Danes has also appeared in the movies "The Hours", "Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines" and "U Turn". In my opinion, Danes, like DiCaprio, had a problem with the Shakespearean language. But she made up for it by portraying the fragile Juliet in her facial and body expressions.

3. Which famed opera singer and former "Law & Order" star played Capulet, Juliet's father?

Answer: Paul Sorvino

Paul Sorvino was Sargent Phil Cerreta for one and a half seasons on "Law & Order" from 1991 to 1992. Sorvino was perfect as Capulet because of his strong opera voice and roundish body type.

4. Which actor, who also starred in the movies "Executive Decision" and "Ice Age", played the role of Tybalt, Juliet's cousin?

Answer: John Leguizamo

John Leguizamo, who played the murderous Tybalt, voiced Sid in "Ice Age" and appeared alongside Kurt Russell, Halle Berry, and Steven Seagal in "Executive Decision", where he played Captain Rat. Leguizamo was perfect in the role of Tybalt. He had good command of the language and played Tybalt in an mobster sort of way.

5. When the opening fight takes place, Tybalt and the other characters present are at a gas station.

Answer: True

The gas stations explodes after gasoline from a shot up pump comes in contact with Tybalt's discarded cigarette.

6. What police rank did Prince hold?

Answer: Captain

Captain Prince was played by Vondie Curtis-Hall, who has also appeared on the TV shows "ER" and "I'll Fly Away" in recurring guest roles. The significance of his rank goes back to the play "Romeo and Juliet" written by William Shakespeare. In both versions, it shows how the Prince is the chief officer of keeping the peace.

7. In the beginning of the movie, which character spoke this line, and who was the actor who played the character: "I will bite my thumb at them, which is an insult to them, if they bear it".

Answer: Sampson, Jamie Kennedy

Jamie Kennedy is probably most well known for his show "The Jamie Kennedy Experiment". He has also appeared in the movies "Malibu's Most Wanted" and "Enemy Of The State". The above quote was the catalyst which started the gas station fight between Sampson and the Montagues versus Tybalt and the Capulets.

8. Which two classical composers' music was used in "Romeo + Juliet"?

Answer: Mozart and Wagner

Mozart's "Symphony no. 25" and Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde" were used in "Romeo + Juliet". Though I cannot remember when exactly these pieces were used, they were perfect for this film.

9. What was Mercutio dressed as at the Capulet party?

Answer: Drag Queen

Mercutio was played by Harold Perrineau Jr., who has also appeared in the movis "The Matrix Reloaded" and in the HBO series "Oz". Mercutio came dressed to the party as a drag queen, complete with only a white bra, panties, and stockings.

10. Who died last in the movie?

Answer: Juliet

Romeo drank a poison and died on top of Juliet's body, just as she woke up from her sleep. She realized he was dead, and shot herself in the head with his handgun.
