'All Is True': The Bard is Back!

And Branagh is taking no prisoners. Finally, a story of Will as he began his retirement at his home in Stratford. There we meet Anne (Dench) his older wife and his two daughters. We feel his pain as he mourns the death of his son who passed in 1596 and the effect his grief has on his youngest daughter.

The film begins with stilted and dry dialog but then offers up absolutely brilliant dialog between Shakespeare and others. For me, it was the conversation between him and the Earl (McKellen)that was the highpoint.

Interestingly there is a lot of candlelit interior shooting which serves up an authentic air. This may not be perfect but it is entertaining, dramatic, and leaving you wanting more.

Hope there's a prequel.
