Romeo + Juliet (1996)
1 easter egg
Directed by: Baz Luhrmann
Starring: John Leguizamo, Paul Rudd, Leonardo DiCaprio, Claire Danes, Brian Dennehy, Paul Sorvino, Jamie Kennedy, M. Emmet Walsh, Miriam Margolyes, Harold Perrineau, Christina Pickles
Revealing mistake: Leonardo DiCaprio blinks after he dies. (01:50:28)
Juliet: I'll look to like, if looking liking move, But no more deep will I endart mine eye, Than your consent gives strength to make it fly.
Trivia: In the fight at the petrol station they are using guns instead of swords (which were used in Shakespearian times), however, when it's said "draw your swords", the dialogue didn't have to be changed for this part, because the film directors made it so that the make of the gun was "sword". Also, when Capulet says "Hand me my Longsword", he reaches for a rifle, most likely from the same factory that made the Sword pistols.
Question: I first saw this film on TV in Britain a few years ago and the song "Exit Music for a Film" by Radiohead played over the end credits. Everytime I have viewed it on television since then, another song from the soundtrack is played at the same point in the movie. Could the change possibly be because its become an expensive song to use as they have become a more high-profile group?

Answer: Whatever songs are in the movie were licensed for distribution by the film production company for a fixed price. It is impossible for there to be later fees somehow incurred on the production company just because the group is more popular. However, it's conceivable that Radiohead only allowed their song for use in cinemas but not television.
