Pretty good romantic drama about a young American woman vacationing in Verona, Italy, whose response to a letter addressed to Shakespeare's tragic heroine Juliet Capulet sets in motion a series of events that leads her -- and the missive's lovelorn author-- in search of romance.

Smash His Camera So so documentary about the controversial life and career of pioneering paparazzo Ron Galella. (3 stars out of 5)
