But when the Princess of France and her very attractive entourage arrive for a visit, it puts them all in a rather tricky situation...

1930s Hollywood Musical meets Shakespeare

Go figure! It shouldn't work, but it does. Chiefly because Shakespeare is bigger than anythign else and will survive just about any setting and period. Branagh knows this so he marries these two contrasting styles together to produce a film that never achieved the level that it deserves. An excellent adaptation. well worth looking at.
