Looks like they’re primarily aiming for teenagers to see this. I think I’ll skip it. The only characters in the original novel I remotely liked were Nick and Jordan(and ever she had her problems).
The 1949 version with Alan Ladd is available on youtube:

I thought the Robert Redford/Mia Farrow version (1970’s?) was good. Thought it was one of Redford’s best performances.
I like Luhrmanns Romeo + Juliet.
