Acclaimed director Baz Luhrmann directs this intelligent retelling of Shakespeare’s classic yet tragic tale of death and romance, Romeo and Juliet. Set in modern day Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Romeo and Claire Danes as Juliet, the two ‘star crossed lovers’ whose love is forbidden due to their families being at war with one another. The story may be updated but Baz has kept the dialect exactly the same producing a brilliant contrast that’s not to be missed! (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment)
