Something positive has happened to the grand master William Shakespeare, something exceptional, particularly in this unconventional fiction story. Shakespeare has been taken down from his high horse and placed among ordinary human being, and the result? He became hip among younger viewers like you and me.
The movie is a free interpretation about what young Shakespeare's life could have been like under the writing of history's most famous love story - and tragedy "Romeo and Juliet". The plot is fresh and stylish, and very alive, and this movie is voluptuous, and very entertaining.
The production has a top quality British cast - with a few American actors. Particularly excellent was Judi Dench as Queen Elisabeth, the experience of the film was intoxication to my eye, and it received thirteen Academy Awards. But of some reason Joseph Fiennes didn't get anything, I thought he dominated in the movie beside Judi Dench - as the late medieval version of "Prince". Gwyneth Paltrow got her Oscar, but personally I found her too weak in her role as the female lead - life is strange.
in any case, the movie was a great adventure on the big screen, a most unusual production that really grabbed my heart. Love stories easily too sentimental - or too pompous. this one is just great to watch.
