1. Modern works of fiction including Twilight (human and vamp love based on Romeo and Juliet). Also films like West Side Story, and I dare say Sookie Stackhouse and Underworld films, too because of the aspect of forbidden love, which again goes back to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. He is my favorite author in the world. I love him.
