At 157 minutes, this new DVD is the most complete film version, and it's the only one with cinematic playfulness to resonate with Shakespeare's brilliant wordplay. William Shakespeare's most popular comedy was written around 1595. It portrays the adventures of four star-crossed lovers and a group of amateur actors, their interactions with woodland fairies and a duke and duchess. Taking place in a mythical Athens and an enchanted forest, there is a handsome fairy king, a misguided parent, young lovers, a weaver who's transformed into a half-donkey, wood sprites and elves--all adding up to a magical spell. This work is widely performed around the globe, and no wonder - it's about the world's most popular pastime, falling in love. But as Puck knows, falling in love can make fools of us all!
