Romeo's Kiss (2007) - full transcript

Cécile must go to rehearse Romeo & Juliet, but boyfriend Thomas wants to come watch. When Cécile is called away to a school interview, the play director asks Thomas to step in as Juliet to rehearse with Jérémie as Romeo, but Thomas is resistant because Jérémie might just be his fantasy. Will Thomas allow Jérémie to kiss him?

You piss me off.

I got to play this in front of the all
school.. It?s very important for me..

Well, thanks, much better...

Now I will be able to
focus well on my love scene.

Your love scene?

Yehaa, it is Romeo and Juliet.

And who plays Romeo?

Jeremy, a classmate.

Are you jealous?

- Here is Thomas, he wanted
to see a rehearsal. - Hi

Hi.



Are you interested in drama?

Yes, yes, very much!

Wonderful! Now Romeo and
Juliet, let's go on the stage

We're going to rehearse
the first kissing scene.

Let's go.

?O, then, dear saint,

let lips do what hands do

They pray...

"They pray, grant thou,
lest faith turn to despair.."

"Saints do not move, though
grant for prayers' sake."

"Then move not,

while my prayer's effect I take."

Cut!

Wait Tomas, it's very kind of
you... but I am the producer here!



All right?

Yeah, ok.

Go on...

"Sin from my lips?

O trespass sweetly urged!

Give me my sin again.

"You kiss by the book."

Let's take a break.

Cecile you?re doing great...
Really. You were very good.

But for the kiss...

could you put in in
it a little bit more?

Do you want her to give a french kiss?

- Are you crazy Tomas?
- Wait. wait... It's a wonderful idea...

And it would be modern!

Let?s keep it.

Carry on!

I'm sorry.

Hello?

Really?

Ok...

Thank you very much. Good bye.

It was William?s School.

They?ve accepted my submission. Do
you realise? The William's school!

Well... They want to see me again...

But I won?t be long...
It?s very close from here.

I can't believe it...

I am sorry Paul.

Who?s William?

No one! It?s a theatre school...

Thomas wait!

You could play the supporting
role while she's away?

Me?

Well... yes...

So we can see what you're made of!

"For saints have hands that
pilgrims' hands do touch,

And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss."

"Have not saints lips,
and holy palmers too?"

"Ay, pilgrim, lips that
they must use in prayer."

Stop! Stop! Stop...

How do you want Jeremy to
play it right if you don?t?

Well... I don?t know... Play it
easy, ?the Italian way?, ok? Go on!

"Ayi, pilgrimo, lips..."

No, no, no...

The Italian way? means
you just tell the lines,

unaffected, with simplicity.

- You think you can do that?
- Yes.

Good.

"Saints do not move, though
grant for prayers' sake.

"Then move not, while my
prayer's effect I take..."

"Thus from my lips, by
yours, my sin is purged."

"Then have my lips the
sin that they have took."

"Sin from my lips? O
trespass sweetly urged!

Give me my sin again."

Jeremy I would like you to put
more intensity in your role.

O, then, dear saint, let
lips do what hands do;

They pray, grant thou, lest
faith turn to despair..."

"Saints do not move, though
grant for prayers' sake..."

"Then move not, while my
prayer's effect I take"

"Thus from my lips, by
yours, my sin is purged?"

"Then have my lips the
sin that they have took."

"Sin from my lips? O
trespass sweetly urged!"

"Give me my sin again"

"You kiss by the book."

Sorry...

Thomas, Bravo, you're amazing!

O, then, dear saint, let
lips do what hands do;

They pray, grant thou,
lest faith turn to despair."

"Saints do not move, though
grant for prayers' sake."

"Then move not,

while my prayer's effect I take..."

Thomas? What are you doing here?

Well, nothing, just giving the lines...

Are you kidding? You were great!

Was I?

I am so happy! They take me!

Well, very good!

Don?t you say anything?

Aren?t you happy for me?

Yes, yes, it?s great!

Bye Thomas.

Bye.

Goodbye Thomas! And thank you.

What have you done to him?

"Thus from my lips, by
yours, my sin is purged."

"Then have my lips the
sin that they have took."

"Sin from my lips? O
trespass sweetly urged! "

"Give me my sin again."

"You kiss by the book."

Bravo, Jeremy.

Thanks... You're really kind...

But...

shouldn?t you give it to Cecilia?

"Saints do not move, though
grant for prayers' sake."

No... But...

Did you really think...?

I am sorry Thomas, but...

I was acting...

Thomas...Thomas...

"I still will stay with thee;

And never from this palace
of dim night Depart again...

Here

Will I set up my everlasting rest,

And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars

From this world-wearied flesh.

Thus with a kiss,

I die!
