Luhrman, B. (Director). (1996). Romeo + Juliet [Film]. 20th Century Fox.
An explosively colourful and at times frenetic telling of the classic tale of star-crossed lovers, this film by Australian director Baz Luhrman brings the story to 1990s Verona while keeping the original dialogue to create a whirling mix of classic and modern.
You know the story, you know how it ends, but even then keep tissues by your side and be prepared to be swept up in this film.
