ROMEO AND JULIET (1968) She has a big crush on a certain Leonard Whiting, who happens to be playing Romeo in a certain film. "He's a dream; he's natural and young and fabulous when he laughs. He has a lovely singing voice, but please don't tell him I said so. I'm mad about him. Every time I go into a shop I say to myself, 'He'd look super in that.' I bought him a pair of mod sunglasses. He bought me an amethyst ring. I also bought him a sweatshirt with 'Man of Iron' on the front. He wears it just to keep me happy." - Olivia Hussey in Honey, March 1968
