A Movie for those who love Shakespeare and plays

Rating: Null/10 (13 February 2003)

For those who have "trod the boards," this is a wonderful movie.
For those who have not, much of the humor is over their heads.
Much of the Academy has "done" Shakespeare, so they got the "inside" jokes, -of which there are many in this movie.
The Academy probably appreciated this movie more than the general public.
This is one of my all-time favorite movies because it brings crisp dialogue and modern playwrighting to Shakespeare while celebrating the literary genius that is Shakespeare.
Kudos to Tom Stoppard and John Madden, et al.
