Water is a motif which is seen throughout the film Romeo and Juliet. The two young lovers first meet at a masked ball by spying one another through a fish tank. Later they fall into a pool together. This video clip shows the amount of work which went in to the preparation for this scene. The scene itself is fairly brief, but memorable.
