Shakespeare Redux

We took granddaughters to the movie theatre to see Gnomeo and Juliet. I would not have gone under any other circumstances, thereby attesting once again to my unsurpassed love for them. Several allusions (e.g. R & G moving van) to Will's earlier drama were subtle enough to question their raison d'être, perhaps to keep the screenwriters awake and motivated. Poetic (actually not poetic at all) license ran rampant (just like my cliches, French, etc.). Eventually the bard himself made an appearance, albeit in the form of a statue come semi-alive. As for the dénouement, go see for yourself but be warned. 
The popcorn was delicious.
