Without doubt one of Shakespeare’s best comedies .This Trevor Nunn version is excellent no less because of such a fine cast Nigel Hawthorn as Malvolio gives an outstanding performance.
Awww you missed the part when orsino confesses his love to viola. Still i love it when when Olivia says “ most wonderful” it just adds so much to the awkwardness of the moment
I have this movie and just can't get past the excellent work done by everyone .It started at a masquerade at sea with the twins singing Oh mistress mine. Those who love Shakespeare can enjoy the BBC production with Felicity Kendall but I like this rather edited version now!
Nigel Hawthorne as Malvolio was a hoot!!! When he bursts in on Olivia in yellow stockings, cross garnered and spouts of his love....or walking and 'finding' the planted love letter. Hilarious. Loved Ben Kingsley also and Richard E. Grant. "I was adored once, too."
HAHAHAHA I can't even forget the day that my class watch this movie cause we learn Shakespeare and we watched this movie and this part my class was full of laugh because of how confuse it was
The best part is the awkward but funny interaction between viola and olivia knowing that she spend the whole play trying to get with her, not knowing he was a she.
I can tell that one in the uniform is really a girl. Movie makers sometimes think they get away with this stuff, but I am sophisticated and often see it.
Well, they say love is blind, possibly also deaf! Of course we just have to go along with it and suspend our disbelief that the characters really couldn't tell the difference, visibly nor audibly! Still, love this film and the wedding scene and Feste's song at the end.
