As someone who really only "got" #Shakespeare after watching #BazLuhrmann 's #Romeoandjuliet I endorse this. (really wish he'd do more).
Whether its keeping the language but juxtaposing it to modern setting or modernizing the lingo like this.
Like the "biting your thumb" - "Ohhhh, I get it. Bro is _calling him OUT_."
Not a massive Elvis fan but I did enjoy the Baz Luhrmann film a few years ago so wandered off to the local IMAX to see his companion piece, EPiC (Elvis Presley in Concert). It was good! I was particularly taken by the moody reworked "Change of Reality / Do You Miss Me?" track (sample below)
