Bereczki Zoltán as Mercutio.
i dont know why but it makes me laugh so much that in the 1968 movie, while romeo is yapping about how adorable he finds juliet, benvolio is just yapping with some guy in the background. he's just there. while romeo is spewing this iconic poetry.
So, every now and then, I go and watch/rewatch iterations of Romeo & Juliet to see/remember how different characters are portrayed.
The 1968 Romeo & Juliet keeps reinstilling my belief that Benvolio is GAY and is dating Mercutio
APPARENTLY this is an "unpopular opinion" amongst my day-to-day interactions cause EVERYONE I mention it to is like: "...uh.. nah.. I don't see it that way. They're just friends."
FRIENDS? Friends don't have the energy of:
(Imagine this in the stereotypical gay voice, please. It makes it funnier.)
Ben: "Please, can we just go inside? I'm tired of your drama, you're gonna get hurt.
Mer: "Try and stop me bitch."
AND THEN LITERAL LOVE STARING WHEN MERCUTIO IS DYING???
They're husbands, I'm sorry, y'all. They're husbands.
Ok this isn't much but I wanted to start drawing with my finger again so take some doodles of Ben ok? Byw
Can we stop treating Benvolio like the little child in the Montacrew™️?
Pls.
I can agree w/ the fact that Ben is more rational than the others in the group but he can be levelheaded and still want to get into shenanigans with his friends. He’d just perfect there to be no property damage.
He’s still a little shit along with the rest of them and we love him :).
(Is this influenced by my friend and I’s reading of Benvolio and the rest of the crew? Yes absolutely but there is textual basis for it as well which I could get into, nonetheless this is still my own interpretation and by no means the only way to view the character. I just wanted to bring up an odd trend I was seeing with the disconnect between Ben and his actions along with the rest of the group :D.)
@mustardintheketchupbottle your turn
“Lily Potter”
Do not disrespect my queen like that. Lily Evans is an independent woman and an icon and she has her own last name.
