Olivia Hussey, renowned for her role as Juliet in the 1968 film 'Romeo and Juliet,' has passed away at the age of 73. Her family announced that she died peacefully at home on Friday, surrounded by loved ones. Hussey, who was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and later moved to London, won a Golden Globe for Best New Actress for her portrayal of Juliet. She starred opposite Leonard Whiting in the film, which was directed by Franco Zeffirelli and won two Oscars.
