Titles Comprise: Romeo & Juliet: (Dir.Baz Luhrmann 1996) Baz Luhrmann's dazzling and unconventional adaptation of William Shakespeare's classic love story is spellbinding. Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes portray Romeo and Juliet the youthful star-crossed lovers of the past. But the setting has been moved from its Elizabethan origins to the futuristic urban backdrop of Verona beach. A Midsummer Night's Dream: (Dir.Michael Hoffman 1999) A stellar cast brings Shakespeare's most romantic comedy to life. The magic begins when two pairs of star-crossed lovers a troop of amateur actors a feuding pair of supernatural sprites and a love potion gone awry all come together in an enchanted moonlit forest. The hilarious result is an unequalled mixture of mischief and merriment. The Merchant Of Venice: (Dir.Michael Radford 2004) 16th Century Venice: Young nobleman Bassanio (Fiennes) has asked his friend Antonio (Irons) to lend him money in order that he might sail to Belmont and try for the hand of the fair Portia (Collins).

The King of Navarre asks three fellow Oxford students to swear an oath forbidding them to see any woman for three years so they can devote themselves to their studies. But when the Princess of France and her very attractive entourage arrive for a visit it puts them all in a rather tricky situation...
