About this product

Product Information

Kenneth Branagh's musical adaptation of Shakespeare's comedy sets the action in the last few days before the start of World War II. In the fictional kingdom of Navarre, King Ferdinand (Alessandro Nivola) and three chums take vow to study rigorously and avoid women for three years. Their vow is immediately tested with the surprise visit of the Princess of France (Alicia Silverstone) with three ladies-in-waiting. Romantic merriment ensues as each of the men fall in love and attempt to woo the ladies without being caught. Branagh's film features musical numbers by Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and others performed in the classic style of 1930s MGM musicals.

  • Great movie even if it is a musical.

    I hate musicals but absolutely love this movie. Kenneth Branagh has never been better and that is saying something as he is always fantastic.

  • Delightful and fun.

    What fun. However did they make such an entertaining movie from what I always thought was the most unreadable Shakepeare ever.

  • Good flick

    This was a used DVD bought to replace an old VHS tape so there were no surprises in the content. The disk was used but in excellent shape.
