When eBookNewser gathered a list of romance films based on books, Romeo & Juliet made the cut.

In the the video embedded above, one reader retells the story of the world’s most famous star-crossed lovers in just 60-seconds.

This project is part of LitDrift’s “Classic Novels in 60 Seconds or Less” video series. What other great love stories could be told in 60 seconds?

The first video from this series featured F. Scott Fitzgerald‘s The Great Gatsby. You can also check out The Great Gatsby as a video game and maybe, as a 3-D movie.
