The 1996 film adaptation of Romeo and Juliet provides a stronger interpretation of Shakespeare’s text, as it utilizes symbolic imagery to better mirror his theme that in efforts to seek peace, people oftentimes attempt to avoid repeating errors of the past. The film evidences this in its representation of the text’s prologue, Romeo’s desperation for Juliet’s affections, and the conclusion of the story. The final line of the prologue of Romeo and Juliet, perhaps most notably, states, “What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend” (Shakespeare 0.0.14). One commonly associates the term “toil” with notions of hardwork and perseverance, and “strive” maintains an association with the prospect of progressing towards a goal.

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is a story that is still profound and relevant today, some four hundred years after it was originally published. Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 film version of the play is a postmodern interpretation and he has successfully “made [the story] available to a whole new audience” (Hutcheon. 2) through his use of interesting film techniques that are able to tell the story in an innovative way. In the film, Luhrmann does away with the famous balcony but rather has Romeo and Juliet meet next to the swimming pool in the Capulet mansion. In this scene, Luhrmann uses a close up while Romeo is saying his famous lines “But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?”
