What are the differences between the play Romeo and Juliet and the 1996 version?
A play is a blueprint. A director and some actors, and probably an extensive production crew, have to take that blueprint and make a performance of it. Uncounted tens of thousands of performances have been made from Shakespeare's play. For a movie (such as Baz Luhrman's 1996 movie Romeo + Juliet) a… screenplay has to be made, from which the movie is made. A screenplay is a lot like a play--it's also a blueprint--but screenplays never get filmed more than once. That is because the film is a permanently recorded performance which can be seen again and again. Live theatre, on the other hand, rarely gets recorded, so it makes more sense to reuse plays. Luhrman did not use the play as his screenplay because the dynamics of film are different from those of theatre. Film relies a lot more on images than on words. This film, in particular, relied on film gimmicks: slow motion, stop action, overcranking, superimposed titles, crosscutting, fast zooms and so on. I recommend that you get hold of the CBC video of a live performance of Romeo and Juliet at the Stratford Festival in 1993 starring Megan Porter Follows and Antoni Cimolino and compare it to the 1996 film.

What is the differences between Romeo and Juliet the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio and the book?
Director Baz Luhrmann chose to set his film in a modern-day American city. Some aspects of the original dialogue were difficult to reconcile with this setting, particularly the references to fighting with swords. The director chose to keep the language of the play, but to have "swords" be a slangy w…ay to refer to guns. The film follows the order of events in the play fairly closely, although (as is almost always the case in film adaptations of Shakespeare) many lines have been cut. This is because it is not considered to be interesting to watch someone talking at length on film, and the play is full of longish speeches. One piece of the action which was changed was the fight between Romeo and Paris at the Capulet monument. This was left out in the film, although Romeo does keep the line "Tempt not a desperate man!" Also, in the film, Juliet wakes just before Romeo dies. This was done in some 17th and 18th century adaptations of the play but was not in the original. Nor is Friar Laurence present when she wakes.
