"Two householdss, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene.

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."

"'Peace?' 'Peace?' I hate the word. As I hate Hell, all Montagues, and thee."

"A plague on both your houses!"

"What would you have with me?"

"Good King of Cats, only one of your nine lives!"

"By my head, here come the Capulets!"

"By my heel, I care not."

Well could be Romeo and Juliet but whether it's the Di Caprio or the earlier version would be difficult as the lines are pure Shakespeare.

As such, either would be correct, which is why I'd accept either answer.

Since you mentioned at least one specifically

(Di Caprio was in "Romeo + Juliet" and no other version),

you're down with a correct answer.

So it's your turn.

Here's how the lines fell...

"Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene.

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."

The opening narration.

In the version with DiCaprio and Danes, this was delivered as a televised news report.

"'Peace?' 'Peace?' I hate the word. As I hate Hell, all Montagues, and thee."

Hot-tempered Tybalt, starting a street-brawl with members of the Montagues, the house

that he and the Capulets fight with all the time. (Naming one house in the quote.)

"A plague on both your houses!"

Mercutio, as he lay dying. (Mentioning both houses.)

"What would you have with me?"

"Good King of Cats, only one of your nine lives!"

Tybalt and Mercutio, as they struggled. Tybalt is nicknamed "King of Cats"

for no obvious reason, and that's mentioned in earlier dialogue.

"By my head, here come the Capulets!"

"By my heel, I care not."

Benvolio and Mercutio, chatting. (And naming the other house.)

For those unclear on the names, Romeo is a Montague, and their partisans include

Benvolio and Mercutio.

Juliet is a Capulet, and Tybalt is her cousin or something like that.

Go, Trefor.

"I'm standin' in the kitchen, carving up a chicken for dinner, minding my own business, when in storms my husband, Wilbur, in a jealous rage. 'You've been screwing the milkman!' he said. He was crazy, and he kept on screaming, 'You've been screwing the milkman!' And then he ran into my knife. He ran into my knife ten times."

A movie that, clearly, not one of you saw!

You're up.

The screwing the milkman quote is from cell block tango (aka, he had it coming).

Fire in the second row is from Mr. Cellophane.

There's a song in there called "we both reached for the gun."

Pop, six, squish... Is the beginning and end of cell block tango.

And all that jazz...
