This is a wonderful presentation of the immortal bard to the popular audience. A consistently brilliant cast and exuberant direction balance the unfortunate tendency to edit the original script which many movies seem to thing essential to give Shakespeare mass appeal. Apart from the slapstick of the watch (Michael Keaton and Ben Elton) there is little which was not clearly apparent in the original play.
The breadth of the sets and the unrestrained romance in the music finish off the glorious feel this film has throughout.
Possible the finest romantic comedy of all time with the possible exception of Twelth Night.
