Shakespeare in Love still gets a short shrift from some quarters for beating Saving Private Ryan but I think it’s utterly joyous. The way it runs the gamut from Carry On… level gags to jokes about John Webster. And Tom Wilkinson’s wonderful arc.

It’s a lovely idea for a film. Essentially, within a few diary entries, Stoker had written the plot of The Thing and set it aboard a ship. It will find a loyal audience, I’m quite sure.
