Episode 13: Starcrossed

Cinema Sounds & Secrets

Two takes on love.

We’ll drop back in time 500 years to the time of Lords and Ladies and sword fights, then leap ahead in time to hot rods, Little Richard and poodle skirts! 

Uptown Girls, Downtown Boys…you get the drift – but as is the way with love – both young lovers meet on the dance floor!  Franco Zeffirelli directed his iconic young love masterpiece with actors who were actually the correct ages that The Bard had written…while our sixties version goes dancing, rock’n’roll style where boy swings girl…on the dance floor.
