Romeo And Juliet 1996

Directed by Baz Luhrmann | Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Claire Danes, John Leguizamo, Paul Sorvino

In director Baz Luhrmann's contemporary take on William Shakespeare's classic tragedy, the Montagues and Capulets have moved their ongoing feud to the sweltering suburb of Verona Beach, where Romeo and Juliet fall in love and secretly wed. Though the film is visually modern, the bard's dialogue remains.
