Claire Dennis gave Juliet a spirit of independence and determination for modern women, while Leonardo DiCaprio injected Romeo with the unruly and sensitive temperament unique to modern young boys. ()
The film is full of post-modern MTV style, and even has passionate performances, and musical elements have replaced each other's violence in many places. Romeo has also been portrayed as a melancholy bard in the Elizabethan era, so violence Weakened, the tragic power is also weakened, but the various collages, planes and other styles of postmodernist art are dizzying.
