Trailer for Private Romeo
Seth Numrich and Matt Doyle star in this modern take on Shakespeare's classic romantic drama, Romeo and Juliet. Incorporating the play's original text, the film follows eight male cadets who are left behind at an isolated military high school. Through YouTube videos and indie-rock, the experience becomes something truly Shakespearean.
