Romeo and Juliet in the Snow (Original Title: Romeo und Julia im Schnee) is a 1920 silent comedy Setting Update of Romeo and Juliet, directed by Ernst Lubitsch.In a tiny village in the snowy German mountains of Schwarzwald, the families Capulethofer and Montekugerl are caught in a long-running feud. Julia Capulethofer (Lotte Neumann) is set to be married to Paris (Julius Falkenstein), but falls in Love at First Sight with the dashing Romeo Montekugerl (Gustav von Wangenheim), who has just returned from a year of military service.The film is a Denser and Wackier Affectionate Parody of the source material, with a significantly happier ending. Ernst Lubitsch was a big fan of the Bard, (having a background as a Shakesperean stage actor), and this was one of two adaptations of the playwright's works the director made in 1920. The other — Kohlhiesel's Daughters, based on The Taming of the Shrew — was released only three days earlier. | |

Age Lift | |
| Romeo And Juliet In The Snow / int_121b3725 | comment |
Age Lift: Julia's age is never stated, though actress Lotte Neumann was twenty-four at the time, and there's no indication that she's meant to be thirteen like Juliet was in Shakespeare's play. | |

Spared by the Adaptation: Here, the youg lovers really are planning to commit suicide, but the Apothecary sells them "poison" consisting of sugar water, meaning that neither of them actually dies here. | |

Dramatic Drop | |
| Romeo And Juliet In The Snow / int_8163e2bb | comment |
Dramatic Drop: This film’s version of the balcony scene has Romeo and Julia — who live right across the street from one another— spot each other through their windows. Julia drops the carpet she’s shaking out of stock, and it lands on her father, setting off his Hair-Trigger Temper. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| Romeo And Juliet In The Snow / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Julia’s father chases her around the house with a carpet whip, whacking furiously at her, after she accidentally drops a rug on him. She’s only saved from a beating by a well-aimed snowball, courtesy of Romeo. He also threatens her with a closed fist when seeing her dance with Romeo, and slaps her and threatens to cut her hair when she’s unwilling to get engaged to Paris. | |

Playing Possum: Played With. Both Romeo and Julia really are fully intent on killing themselves here, but when the �poison� fails to work, they end up playing dead anyway when the Capulethofers enter the scene. | |

Feuding Families: Exaggerated in typical Lubitsch fashion. Somebody sticking his tounge out ends up starting a street brawl involving seemingly every villager in the surrounding area. The whole thing is then immediately broken up by the arrival of a single policeman. | |
