Pride And Prejudice/Shakespeare In Love [DVD]

Pride And Prejudice/Shakespeare In Love [DVD]

Pride and PrejudiceRightly winning wide acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, this latest ... more

take on Jane Austens classicPride andPrejudiceis a
real, all-round triumph. The age-old story still
holds real resonance, and it follows the tale of
five sisters dealing with love, and the many
trials and tribulations that brings. There are so
many delights to director Joe Wrights take on the
story, and his direction is a strong place to
start. In spite of having to condense the tale to
fit a movie running time, he nonetheless injects a
real energy and intelligence to his retelling, and
hes served supremely well by his cast. Backed up
by strong support by the likes of Brenda Blethyn
and Donald Sutherland, its Keira Knightley in the
lead turn whos a real surprise here. Her
performance is a real joy, and very much at the
core of the films success.The film inevitably
draws comparison with the superb 1995 BBC
adaptation, and while arguably it doesnt quite
scale the same peaks, its to the credit of the
filmmakers that their version still holds strong.
For this is a tremendously enjoyable drama, and
one that should continue to find an audience for a
long time to come. An excellent film.--Simon
BrewShakespeare in LoveOne of the most endearing
and intelligent romantic comedies of the 1990s,
the Oscar-winningShakespeare in Loveis filled with
such good will, sunny romance, snappy one-liners
and devilish cleverness that it's absolutely
irresistible. With tongue placed firmly in cheek,
at its outset the film tracks young Will
Shakespeare's overwrought battle with writer's
block and the efforts of theatre owner Philip
Henslowe (Geoffrey Rush, in rare form) to stage
Will's latest comedy, Romeo and Ethel, the
Pirate's Daughter. Jokey comedy, though, soon
takes a backseat to ravishing romance when the
beautiful Viola De Lesseps (Gwyneth Paltrow)
disguises herself as a young man to wangle herself
an audition in the all-male cast and wins both the
part of Romeo and, after much misunderstanding,
the playwright's heart. Soon enough, Will's pirate
comedy becomes the beautiful, tragic Romeo and
Juliet, reflecting the agony and ecstasy of Will
and Viola's romance--he's married and she's set to
marry the slimy Lord Wessex (Colin Firth).The way
that Oscar-winning screenwriters Marc Norman and
Tom Stoppard enfold their story within the
parameters of Romeo and Juliet (and even Twelfth
Night) is nothing short of brilliant--it would
take a Shakespearean scholar to dissect the
innumerable parallels, oft-quoted lines, plot
developments, and thematic borrowings. And most
amazingly, Norman and Stoppard haven't forgotten
to entertain their audience in addition to riding
a Shakespearean roller coaster, with director John
Madden (Mrs. Brown) reigning in his huge ensemble
with rollicking energy. Along the way there are
small gems to be found, including Judi Dench's
eight-minute, Oscar-winning turn as a truly regal
Queen Elizabeth, but the key element ofShakespeare
in Love'ssuccess rests on the milky-white
shoulders of its two stars. Fiennes, inexplicably
overlooked at Oscar time, is a dashing, heartfelt
Will and as for Best Actress winner Paltrow, well,
nothing she'd done before could have prepared
viewers for how amazing she is here.
Breathtakingly beautiful, fiercely intelligent,
strong-willed and lovestruck--it's a performance
worthy of Shakespeare in more ways than one. By
the film's end, you'll be thoroughly won over--and
brushing up your Shakespeare with newfound ardour.
--Mark Englehart
