Who Shot Romeo and Juliet? Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet (1996)

Baz Lurhmann’s 1996 Romeo + Juliet, starring Leonardo DiCaprio
and Claire Daines, along with John Leguizamo, Paul Rudd, Pete
Postlethwaite, Paul Sorvino, and Harold Perrineau, was one of the
highest grossing adaptations of the story. We discuss Luhrmann’s
unique visual style and his unabashed hodgepodge of
traditionalism, pop culture, and current events, from Mexican
Catholicism to The Graduate to the unrest in Los Angeles in the
early 1990s.
