Baz Luhrmann’s update of Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes is a jaw-dropping, open-hearted masterpiece. Transporting the action to Verona Beach, California, its star-crossed tale of lovers falling for each other against the backdrop of a gang war is as timeless as ever – but shot through with a whole wave of ...
Before Baz Luhrmann came Stephen Sondheim, as Romeo and Julie gets the musical treatment. Here, Natalie Wood and Richard Beymer play the star-crossed lovers in 1950s New York, caught between two warring gangs. From the whip-smart direction and choreography and the script’s understanding of immigration in America to the ear-worming songs, Leonard Be...
Richard Loncraine’s Richard III remains among a small group of movies that dare to do something different with Shakespeare – in this case, throw in everything from Nazis and tanks to Robert Downey Jr. and trips to the bathroom. It’s an unconventional approach that culminates in an explosive showdown around Bankside Power Station, before it became t...
Ralph Fiennes joins the list of actors who have directed themselves in a Shakespeare film with this blistering take on Shakespeare’s oft-overlooked play. “A place calling itself Rome” is how John Logan’s script introduces the modern setting, shoving Shakespeare’s political drama into the middle of a war-torn republic. Saving Private Ryan-style sequ...

It’s also the most interestingly adapted for the screen, with both Roman Polanski and Akira Kurosawa cementing their entirely different interpretations in cinematic history. This new version, starring Michael Fassbender, has a lot, therefore, to live up to, ...
10 Things I Hate About You won over hordes of teenagers with its wry realisation that The Taming of the Shrew’s gender politics and inequality are issues dealt with every day in high school. Not only a memorable Shakespeare adaptation but also a definitive high school movie in its own right, Gil Junger’s knowing update has enough laughs to keep you...
Joss Whedon’s take on Shakespeare’s winning romantic comedy is a sparkling, bubbly affair. That’s mostly thanks to the fact that it’s filmed all in his own home, with a group of actors who regularly went over to his for readings. The result fizzes with natural chemistry and familiarity between every performer, while Whedonverse regulars Alexis Deni...
Stanley Tucci as a smouldering, playful Puck. Kevin Kline as a scene-stealing Bottom, investing his fool with both hysterical clumsiness and an unexpected pathos. Michael Hoffman’s Italy-set version of Shakespeare’s most whimsical comedy is studded with a gob-smacking cast, with Calista Flockhart, Anna Friel, Christian Bale and Dominic West playing...
Ethan Hawke brings a downbeat vibe to this compelling version of Shakespeare’s most famous play. Relocated to contemporary New York, his Hamlet is the heir to the Denmark Corporation, with Kyle MacLachlan as his brother, Claudius, taking over the company by hitching up with Hamlet’s mother, the grieving widow Gertrude. Hamlet vows to take revenge, ...
