Amazing-romantic story

Rating: Null/10 (24 March 2003)

I think Shakespeare in Love; which I see more than five times, is extremely good and lovely. It was directed by John Madden, produced by Marshall Herskovitz, Marc Norman and David Parfitt, and written by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard. The main characters are Joseph Fiennes as William Shakespeare, who is a handsome man, and Gwyneth Paltrow as Lady Fiona, a pretty and blond woman. This superb romantic, comedy and historical film was filmed in England and it happened in 1590. The film is about how Shakespeare finds the inspiration he has lost, to write Romeo and Ethel the pirate's daughter. He meets Lady Viola, with whom he falls in love, although she was engaged with a man called Lord Wessex. While they live an amazing and strong romance, he is writing the sonnets to the play. The plot changes from a comedy to a stunning drama. They read together feeling as if they are Romeo and Juliet. One day the Queen knows about the relationship and orders to Lord Wessex to marry her (Viola) as soon as possible. Unfortunately, they got married on the same day of the show time of the play. But on this day the main characters get ill and the only people who really know the script are both of them: Will and Lady Viola, so as the phrase says, " the show has to continue" they do it. The play was a box office hit. As I'm concerned it is my favorite film, The costumes are amazing and the scenery is exactly as those times.For me it is a comedy, drama and romantic-love story. It's a surprising comedy as well as a tragic drama, which makes you cry and laugh. From my Point of view, this film is well worth seeing.
