The ending of Romeo and Juliet enraged me at the same time that it made me sad. Romeo going to the tomb to kill himself, not knowing that Juliet was still alive, and too emotional to think things through, was what enraged me. It was annoying to watch a character make such a huge mistake, when I knew it was a mistake, but he was clueless. At the same time though, it was really sad to watch Romeo take his life in grief, and then Juliet wake up to Romeo being dead, and taking her own life as well. The thought of such a young couple taking their lives for each other is a really sad one, and it truely saddened me.
I believe the story of Romeo and Juliet has had a huge impact on pop culture throughout the ages, influencing people to make movies and stories about lovers who couldn't be together. Even today, you often see movies with story lines very similar to that of Romeo and Juliet.
