Shakespeare

Rating: 10/10 (17 February 2007)

I don't know if there is any Shakespeare buffs out there. But I love Shakespeare. Well the basic plot of this movie is based off of Shakespeares Twelfth Night. Of course it has been modernized for our viewing pleasure....but if this doesn't remind you of She's the Man then i don't know what would.
Plot Summary for Twelfth Night: When Viola and her twin brother Sebastian are shipwrecked and separated, Viola dresses in her brother's clothes and becomes a page in the palace of the Duke of Orsino. Thinking Viola is a boy, the Duke sends her with a message to Olivia, whom he loves. A series of complications begins when Olivia falls in love with the page 'boy'.
They use the same names and fact that they are twins and separated and Viola becomes her brother and the whole love mess. Just like She's the Man....Think of 10 Things I Hate About You and Shakespeares The Taming of the Shrew.......same deal.....10 Things was based off of Taming of the Shrew.....look into Shakespeares originals if you like either of the modernized versions.......
