No one cares all that much about how Romeo found her bedroom window (Cut lines 79-84). I think the discussion between Romeo and Juliet on how he managed to find exactly the right place to find her was cut on the basis of repetition. Earlier in the scene its already established that he is risking a lot to be where he shouldn't be, and earlier still in the film we see Romeo ditch his friends in order to find the Capulet girl he kissed at the party. The audience knows he is guided by young love. It seems like the natural thing to ask someone who shows up outside your bedroom window, but for the sake of movie audiences, it ends up being a little redundant and both characters already eloquently articulate the force of love driving their actions.

She is this comedic relief, Hispanic, motherly, woman. In this scene, she comes barreling through like a bull in a china shop. In my opinion, she's so boisterous in this scene to cut the sexual tension before Romeo and Juliet actually consummate in the pool. The change from “madame” to “Juliet” is a small one, but showcases both the light comedy, the setting, and the updated relationship between the characters. The Hispanic accent is much more pronounced on the name Juliet than it is on the word “madame,” and it also reminds us of the re-imagined world of “Fair Verona” Luhrmann is creating. Listening to that woman bellow “Juliet” with her Hispanic pronunciation is hilarious in itself, but it also gives us insight into how these characters relate to each other. The dynamic of servant and mistress is pretty dated in the 90's. Sure, well off families often have maids and nannies, and it is established that the Capulet's are rich, but wealthy families of our time are much more likely to think of their help as extended family or close friends. This comes through in the very maternal relationship the Nurse has with
