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.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A delirious, MTV-soaked fever dream of Shakespeare's tragedy where the heightened language crashes headfirst into neon chaos and teenage passion. The collision between tragic inevitability and the sheer visual madness of it all creates something genuinely disorienting to watch.
