I'll be buying this one on video!

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 1999)

I've seen this film twice and considering that I have to drive over 60 miles one way to the nearest theatre, I think that's a sound enough vote for "Shakespeare in Love" as Best Picture of the Year.
This film has everything....art, politics, passion, mistaken identity, and a delicious love story. As an English major with a minor in Shakespeare, it does my heart good to see the popularity of the Bard's work....from Gibson/Branaugh's "Hamlet," to the many upcoming releases of his work, Shakespeare is enjoying a long-deserved revival.
I'll be watching on Oscar night...good luck to all those involved with this glorious film!
