30th Anniversary Remaster
Baz Luhrmann’s vibrant adaptation of Shakespeare's famous play gets a 4K remaster for its 30th anniversary. It is set in the hip modern suburb of Verona Beach and retains the original dialogue.
The Capulets and the Montagues are two rival gangs. Juliet (Claire Danes) is attending a costume ball thrown by her parents. Her father Fulgencio Capulet (Paul Sorvino) has arranged her marriage to the boorish Paris (Paul Rudd) as part of a strategic investment plan. When Romeo (Leonardo DiCaprio) of the Montagues attends the masked ball, he and Juliet fall in love. The family feud erupts anew when a carload of Montagues take on the hot-blooded Tybalt Capulet (John Leguizamo) and his kinsmen at a gas station, which goes up in a spectacular conflagration. Luhrmann is at his most inventive and innovative here, lavishing us with vibrant camera work and keeping a blistering tempo throughout.
