Answer:

While i will not write your essay completely, I will help you. look in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Romeo and Juliet is a timeless story that is known worldwide. While everyone knows the version by shakespeare, it depends on who you ask. Younger generations and older generations alike have a soft spot for any movie with Leonardo DiCaprio. Older generations did grow up with the traditional play and the movie does not appeal to them as much as it does to generations that grew up with this movie. I think that the 1996 film adaptation to Romeo and Juliet represents the theme in the play more effectively because it appeals to younger generations and it shows a problem that is going on in the current time.

heres a good opener for you.
