Josh O'Connor and Jessie Buckley make you forget you know how this ends. Devastating.
An adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy set in modern-day Italy where two young lovers strive to transcend a violent world where Catholic and secular values clash.

Buckley's Juliet is feral, luminous, absolutely unhinged in the best way.
Direction
Godwin's modern Italy makes the feud feel terrifyingly contemporary.
Production
That collapsing church set deserves its own standing ovation.
