If you think Romeo and Juliet is the greatest love story of all time...I got news for ya, bud.

"People need to stop using Romeo and Juliet as the stereotypical teen romance. He was 17. She was 13. It lasted three days and six people died.""People misinterpret it. It's not a love story; it's a tragedy. Now, in our modern vocabulary, a tragedy is a story with a sad ending, but back then, and dating back to ancient Greek theater, a tragedy is a specific story structure.
A tragedy back then was a story structure where someone's decision, or series of decisions, leads to the awful ending .isn't a love story, it's a criticism of teenage impulsivity. The whole point is that every decision they made made the situation worse, leading to the climactic double suicide ending."20th Century Fox
