Director Simon Godwin on Romeo and Juliet, now streaming on PBS
When the pandemic hit London, director Simon Godwin's National Theatre production of \u201cRomeo & Juliet\u201d shut down before it could open. So Godwin shot the play as a movie \u2014 never mind that he had never picked up a camera and couldn\u2019t film outside the theater. Even without a trip to fair Verona, Godwin shot his movie, starring Josh O\u2019Connor and Jessie Buckley, in a mere 17 days.\xa0
