movie review - Shakespeare in Love

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 1999.01.15

I enjoyed this. It's a simple movie, with a good tempo and a funny story. It's also got a tragic love story, sword fighting, and a surprise visit by Queen Elizabeth. What more does a flick need?

Recommended.
