Britain's J. Arthur Rank put up part of the cash, Castellani put together his company, including Cameraman Robert Krasker-who in Henry V matched Shakespeare's morning language with an early wonder in his light and color-and the youngest Romeo (26-year-old Laurence Harvey) and Juliet (20-year-old Susan Shentall) of recent date.
