If you loved Romeo + Juliet, try The Great Gatsby

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Baz Luhrmann, and they both carry the cozy mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Romeo + Juliet, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Great Gatsby is

Long Island, summer, jazz drifting across the water. A grand estate, extravagant parties, and the enigmatic Jay Gatsby. Luhrmann brings excess to the screen with flair.
