Title: Much Ado about a great movie.
Review: This movie smoked "Pvt. Ryan" for the best movie oscar. It had to compete with another period piece "Elizabeth". But,those movies had to compete with a cast multi-layered in talent. Not to mention compete with "Willie Shakes" himself. I like the way the movie brought in Christopher Marlowe, who was once (And I hope they have given up on the idea that Shakespeare was anybody but the "William Shakespeare, Bard of Avon")thought to have written many of the plays attributed to the bard himself. The setting is great and young Mr. Fiennes fit right in even after I had seen his brilliant role in "Elizabeth". Judi Dench was a cinch to win the oscar. She is marvelous as always. Great movie, one I will hopefully see many times over.
