REVIEW:
Eeeeeeeeeeek. Been dying to watch this film. I love some Shakespeare and I remember writing a huge paper on him and his life. Not much is known about his wife, which is sad.
Here we follow Agnes (Anne) who is a healer and falls for William. He is younger and just a local tutor with dreams of being a playwright. Years go by and things find a nice pace....until their lives are fractured and everything is tested when their beloved son passes away.
I cried.
I cried A LOT.
This film was beautiful. This film hit all the emotions. There was some humor but this was a tragedy.
That last scene? I was in awe. Beautiful. The way that we got to see forgiveness and love without a single word. This took some powerful actors and this was a lovely cast.
You do not need to be a huge 'Hamlet' or Shakespeare fan to enjoy this film. It was a lovely people story.
5 stars.
