Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes in the lead roles, literally changed the game when it comes to cinematic adaptations of William Shakespeare.
Although many tried to replicate Luhrmann's success, his trademark DayGlo visuals aimed at the MTV generation, accompanied by a hit-filled soundtrack, have always been impossible to copy. While the setting and costuming are completely modernized, the content remains the same.
This iconic adaptation tracks a long-standing conflict between rival families, the Montagues and the Capulets. Despite their families being at war, Romeo and Juliet fall in love, and that's when everything starts to go wrong.
