"It may be the most visually imaginative Shakespeare film since Akira Kurosawa's Ran, and certainly one of the more operatic Hollywood creations of recent years."
"Luhrmann's gleefully cinematic version of the play is so relentlessly inventive and innovative, it takes 20 minutes to get a grasp on how appropriate his approach is to the material."
This film is part of the Brief Encounters series.
