Without a doubt my favorite film adaptation is Kenneth Branagh’s “Much Ado About Nothing.”
Haimlet (any of them).
ok
My all-time favorite film adaptation of Shakespeare is the “Much Ado About Nothing” that Kenneth Branagh directed. I grew up with the movie, watching it over and over again as a kid. Denzel Washington’s portrayal of the prince set the standard for me for what a good man should look like, and Emma Thomspon’s Beatrice left me in tears and in stitches, helping show that it’s possible to be both funny and fierce. When I experienced my first real heartbreak, I rewatched the movie: “Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more…” I’ve seen incredible stage adaptations of the play, too, but this movie will always be special to me.
For some reason, I don’t think my last comment posted, so I’ll try again: my all-time favorite is the 1993 “Much Ado About Nothing” adaptation. I watched it a ton as a child and it taught me (for better or for worse) most of what I believe about love, humor, and resilience. It turned me into a lifelong Shakespeare lover, too 🙂
My favorite traditional Shakespeare play on film is Richard III with Ian McKellan. For an updated adaptation, I really like “10 Things I Hate about You.”
