kenmorefield Report post Posted June 10, 2019 I did not like this at all. Wait, I'm mean to say: liketh this, I did not. https://1morefilmblog.com/2019/06/10/all-is-true-branagh-2019/ Quote Many of Shakespeare’s plays revolve around melodramatic situations and characters that are stock or even cliches. But his language elevates the jealous lover, the bitter patriarch, or the grieving family member. Ultimately it is the language more than the plot that distinguishes Shakespeare, and so it is the dialogue more than the treacly music, prosthetic noses, and bad wigs that sinks All is True. The dissonance between when the actors recite Shakespeare’s words and when they recite Ben Elton’s is akin to hearing Kelli Pickler cover Freddie Mercury on American Idol. It just sounds wrong.

Overstreet Report post Posted June 11, 2019 The trailer for this was so bad that it looked like an SNL spoof. I'd be hard-pressed to think of prosthetics that made me laugh out loud the way Branagh's new dome did when I first saw it. Quote P.S. I COULD BE WRONG.
