Title: Bread and circuses taste is well served
Review: Perhaps it is a great movie for those who actually know very little about Shakespeare, literature, history and art in general. I am sure it won the Oscar becuase it's so revoltingly simple and unsophisticated, but unfortunately, it profanes a serious subject of art and lets an ordinary person think that now he is familiar with something more subliminal than his everydy chores. I guess it has an appeal to masses, otherwise it's hard to explain why it wins these rave reviewes. All in all, it's a soap opera at best, and even the sonnet they selected is the most beaten up Shakespeare's piece. The film shows what happens when a theory that art's purpose is to entertain working people is implemented live... By the way, Saving Private Ryan is even worse, in my opinion - a totally fantastic story good for elementary scholl kids...
