Romeo and juliet leonardo dicaprio full movie

вЂњWe wanted them to straight away be drawn into this version of Romeo and Juliet, in our time with these young characters that people could identify with, even in their divisive religious culture. вЂњWe really dissected what Shakespeare was trying to say, and how we wanted the imagery to support those words and tell a visual story so that the audience had time to digest the Shakespeare language and not be locked out of it,вЂќ Barrett tells NYLON during a phone interview. Barrett, who is also the costume designer behind The Matrix movies, Us, Aquaman, and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, worked closely with Luhrmann and production designer Catherine Martin to create the wildly colorful world in which the Capulets inhabit.

The wardrobe was opulent and beautifully garish, yet somehow timeless. The Montague and Capulet boy-gangs wore colorful Hawaiian shirts, cross necklaces, ornate gun holsters, and leather vests.

TheyвЂ™ve also been referenced in other pop culture moments, including HBOвЂ™s Euphoria and HalseyвЂ™s music video for вЂњNow or Never.вЂќД«ut the loversвЂ™ looks are just a small part of the costume design pie. For the love-at-first-sight scene, costume designer Kym Barrett put Danes in a white gown and angel wings and for DiCaprio, a knight costume - both looks that have been copied by fans every Halloween since the film debuted more than two decades ago.

After all, itвЂ™s been adapted time and time again. When Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes first locked eyes during their iconic fish tank meet-cute in 1996вЂ™s Romeo + Juliet, Baz LuhrmannвЂ™s take on the Shakespearean love story, it was game over for anyone who thought theyвЂ™d be unaffected by the centuries-old teenage tragedy.
