From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
New adaptations of Shakespeare's immortal tale of forbidden love are often met with skepticism, and for good reason. A few weeks ago I caught a Canadian version of the tale entitled Roméo et Juliette from director Yves Desgagnés. I must say I enjoyed this version very much. Yes it is in French, but don't let that stop you from seeing it, it is very visual with wonderful music and great actors and had me hooked the entire movie. It had all the elements for great watching, great looking cast, Roméo in this version was part of the swim team, so of course lots of shirtless shots. A gay story line for two of the supporting cast members and as I stated some great music.
I was hooked as well by the adorable Thomas Lalonde in the role of Roméo. Thomas is cute as hell and did a great job in the role. This young actor has only made 2 films, but I am sure we will be seeing much more of him. My research did not find too much about Thomas, but again, it is still very early in his career. His smile and amazing eyes had me from his first scene. I could stare in those eyes forever. If you get a chance to rent this movie, I would highly recommend doing so. I will be keeping my eye out for future projects featuring Thomas and will be sure to share anything new I find on this Canadian hottie.
Thomas Lalonde was born on November 5, 1989 in Canada. He is an actor, known for Roméo et Juliette (2006), Tromper le silence (2010) and La capture (2007).
