Objective: You're a witty soldier, close to the Duke, and just back from the wars. A furlough is planned, but unfortunately it's at the Messina house of Leonato, the governor, whose neice, Beatrice, is an ex-girlfriend of yours. You and your ex go to it like das of old, arguing and sparring, until a trick is played by your 'friends' to convince each of you that the other is madly in love with them. Accusations, a faked death, and a masked marriage prevent this play from spilling over into unbearable whimsy, but the battles of Beatrice and Benedick are the things of legend. Review every film version of Shakespeare's 'Much Ado About Nothing.' Matches 1 to 4 out of 4 |
