very nice version of Shakespeares romantic comedy much ado about nothing staring director Kenneth Branagh and his ex wife Emma Thompson. the setting that Kenneth Branagh chose amongst rolling vineyards really helped the characters get into their role and express the message that Shakespeare wanted to give out to his audience. the facial expressions that the actors used really help us as the audience to understand what was happening and find a deeper meaning in the play. it showed how you should never come to conclusions to quickly like Claudio and Hero did at the point where they decided to get married even though they did not know each other for too long. this led to Cluadio jumping into conclusions and ruining Hero. this really shows what young love can be like. whereas Benedick and Beatrice who have got to know each other a lot and know each others bad and good qualities and end up tricked into being together but they are happy with it though.
