An allusion is a passing reference to a line, character or situation in another literary work. It does not mean that the one work is an adaptation of the other, as West Side Story is of Romeo and Juliet.
Shakespeare's work is so deeply imbedded in English that he is alluded to constantly. There are hundreds of thousands of movies and television programs which allude to Shakespeare. Here is a very short list of examples:
