Romeo + Juliet

PG
Baz Luhrmann, 116 mins, USA/Australia, 1998.

Baz Luhrmann's theatrical film adaptation of William Shakespeare's play is set in modern-day Los Angeles and reverberates with pop music and gunfire. Distinguished by Luhrmann's bravura style and Jill Bilcock's fast-paced editing, this film adaptation is a riveting introduction to Shakespeare's play and his language.

The accompanying lecture will focus on the play's themes and language, and the success of Luhrmann's interpretation.
