Actress who played Juliet dies

Olivia Hussey, renowned for her portrayal of Juliet in the cult 1968 film adaptation of "Romeo and Juliet", has died at the age of 74. Her acting performance at a young age brought her international recognition, making Hussey one of the brightest stars of her time.

For her role as Juliet, Olivia was awarded a Golden Globe in the "Best New Star" category. However, decades later, the actress filed a lawsuit against Paramount Pictures, accusing it of sexual assault. During the filming of the film's famous nude scene, Hussey was only 15 years old, which sparked years of debate over the acceptability of such situations in cinema.

Olivia Hussey left a significant mark on film history, but her passing once again raises questions about industry ethics, particularly regarding work with young actors.
