The 2013 film adaptation of Romeo & Juliet, directed by Carlo Carlei and written by Julian Fellowes (the creator of Downton Abbey), was an attempt to revitalize William Shakespeare’s tragic romance for a 21st-century audience. Unlike the high-octane 1996 Baz Luhrmann version, this film returned to a lush, traditional Renaissance-era setting, filming on location in Verona, Mantua, and Rome. Production and Creative Direction
Fellowes faz cortes significativos no texto original de Shakespeare para adequar o tempo, o que puristas podem criticar, mas que ajuda a manter o ritmo ágil para o público moderno. O foco aqui está mais na narrativa do que na poesia dos diálogos.
