Shakespeare In Love 1998
Directed by John Madden | Starring: Ben Affleck, Gwyneth Paltrow, Geoffrey Rush, Imelda Staunton
Young Shakespeare is forced to stage his latest comedy, "Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter," before it's even written. When a lovely noblewoman auditions for a role, they fall into forbidden love -- and his play finds a new life (and title). As their relationship progresses, Shakespeare's comedy soon transforms into tragedy.
