My favourite movie this year!!

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 1999)

I wanted to see it for two reasons: Shakespeare and Gwyneth Paltrow. It exceeded my expectations and that's putting it mildly. It is a wonderfully fresh and innovative way to look at Shakespeare. Even my friends who do not at all care for Shakespeare loved this movie. It's a lot of fun to surmise about what could have possibly inspired Shakespeare to write the things he did. This movie really gets the wheels moving. Definitely the year's best. My vote: 10/10!
