Twelfth Night or What You Will (1996)
A pretty corpse; the herd is wrong.

If Shakespeare were this dead, we'd all be reading Ben Jonson instead.
Pretty pictures and big names don't guarantee the illusion of life.
We need people to move, to have energy, to make us care about what happens to them. It's a comedy, remember?
This was more like a glossy coffee-table picture book of fabulous house interiors. An uninhabited house.
Shakespeare wrote a whole raft of interesting people.
I wanted to get interested in these people up there on the screen, but they were all on life-support, like a group coma punctuated by an occasional wake.
"O for a muse of fire!" Or at least a director with some.
