Shakespeare in Love is a 1998 period romantic comedy film directed by John Madden, written by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard, and produced by Harvey Weinstein. It stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Joseph Fiennes, Geoffrey Rush, Colin Firth, Ben Affleck and Judi Dench.
The film depicts a fictional love affair involving playwright William Shakespeare (Fiennes) and Viola de Lesseps (Paltrow) while Shakespeare was writing Romeo and Juliet. Several characters are based on historical figures, and many of the characters, lines, and plot devices allude to Shakespeare's plays.
Shakespeare in Love received acclaim from critics and was a box office success, grossing $289 million worldwide and becoming the ninth highest-grossing film of 1998. The film was noted for its highly skilled plotting and balancing of comedy and drama and for the high quality of its dialogue, performances, and production design. It received numerous accolades; it won three Golden Globe Awards (including Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy and Best Actress - Motion Picture Comedy or Musical for Paltrow), two Screen Actors Guild Awards (Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture and Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for Paltrow), and four British Academy Film Awards (including Best Film).[5][6][7] The film ultimately won a leading seven Oscars out of thirteen nominations at the 71st Academy Awards: Best Picture (Parfitt, Gigliotti, Weinstein, Zwick, & Norman), Best Actress (Paltrow), Best Supporting Actress (Dench), Best Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen (Norman & Stoppard), Best Original Musical or Comedy Score (Warbeck), Best Art Direction (Childs & Quertier), and Best Costume Design (Powell).[8] - Розваги
Imelda Staunton, who plays Viola's nurse, is married to Jim Carter, who plays Juliet's nurse in the play (in this movie). (Also Carson on _Downton Abbey_ and Staunton was in the second movie.)
He's in the new Wonka movie as well.
I always loved that part. That is since I found out about them from Downton Abby. He is awesome as Juliet’s mom.
I once had the very great pleasure of watching this film with an audience full of Hollywood writers who immediately recognized the name “John Webster” as a punchline.
This is a favorite of mine. I saw it four times in the theatre and I'm glad it won Best Picture at the Oscars.
It was so good! We really liked it!
Right? I know 95% of people get their panties bunched over Saving Private Ryan, but this was a well-deserved award for incredibly clever writing. One of the best written movies I've ever seen.
Loved this watchalong with you two! It's always a joy seeing people start to get into this movie as it goes along and it just gets better and is so not what they thought it was going to be about. And without hyperbole, it really is a phenomenal movie, to juggle so much pomp and excess, yet flows so naturally and feels grounded.
And speaking of Downton Abbey, you might want to try out its predecessor by the same writer, 2001's Gosford Park.
I LOVE this charming Academy Award winning movie! So beautiful, romantic, comedic, historical period drama with every clever script and great cast. Definitely in my top films of all time! Described the true nature of love and segued into Shakespeare's 12th Night perfectly where Viola must disguise herself from the King as a boy. John Webster grew up to write and create an early form of a Horror-like genre in theater. Most of the main characters are based on real people! BTW your Scottish accent is almost harder than understanding Shakespearean! LOL!
Thanks to Lorna and Colin! 💌 I saw this one in the cinema. John Madden directed.
22:42 is the cutest thing I have ever seen in a reaction video. ❤❤❤
I really wish they had filmed the entire play. I would have happily bought that.
Where have you all been? Haven't seen you for weeks,missed you
We missed you too. Sadly Lorna has a very close family member who has suddenly become ill and will pass soon. She has not been able to face the camera often and has been spending her free time caring for them. BUT, we will be getting some more thing out over the coming weeks and hopefully back to full steam ahead as soon as possible
Blessings to her and family @@weebitreacts
Will Shakespeare is played by Joseph Fiennes, Ralph Fiennes’ brother. Aka Voldemort, among many other huge roles in his career.
Shakespeare in Love is True Cinema I Love The Theatre Thespians are amazing people
Colin deeming Shakespeare a “poopyhead”😂
I missed you guys. What an awesome way to come back with a movie that I adore, that no one EVER reacts to. You've made my day.
So glad to hear it!
There are other reactions on here if you search "shakespeare in love reaction."
I had to take a break after Lorna reaction to the mices; cuteness overload!🥰
you two were very conspicuous in your absence. I am very pleased to see you back.
Sorry unfortunately Lorna has a family member who has become ill all of a sudden and is close to passing. She has found it hard to get herself in front of the camera. We are glad to get something out
Shakespeare in a Divided America is an excellent history of Shakespeare's plays in America. There's a good chapter on the writing of this movie. The writers really agonized over how to end it and this was the best they came up with
The kid with the mice is John Webster, who grew up to write _The Duchess of Malfi,_ among other works. "Cover her face . . . mine eyes dazzled . . . She died young."
His works were particularly violent for the time. I loved that little easter egg.
Imelda Staunton plays the nurse and Delores Umbridge in Harry Potter movies.
A movie from the 1980s is an old movie in the 2020s; that is objectively the case. I tend to mean movies from the 1930s or 1940s or earlier when I talk about "old movies," but they are all old, really.
May this channel Rest In Peace
@pluto6347 They're fine as far as I know Im just saying RIP for the lack of reactions for 3 months and counting
First real snow of winter here in New York City-metro area. I'm sick but seeing "new video from Weebit" on my phone + hot coffee = instant comfort. So good to see you guys!
Hope you feel better soon bestie
Thank you! Much better today! Bit of WeeBit magic! 😄@@weebitreacts
Hi I would really recommend watching Marie Antoinette 2006 directed by Sofia Coppola same director of lost in translation ur first video it’s my all time fav movie
Loved it
Where are you? Please come back. We need you.
"Twelfth Night" is the play. You should react to the version with Imogen Stubbs and Helena Bonham Carter.
Dialogue in this play brilliantly functions as foreshadowing in Greta Gerwig's LITTLE WOMEN.
please also react to evil dead rise
