The beauty of the scene lies in the structure of the screenplay with a predictable happy ending and several twists typical of Hollywood, but overall pleasant and professionally made, with a moderate budget, strong cast, and performances. Camera, editing, music, everything fits together, and the playful use of Shakespearean texts allows the actors to show that they are familiar with classical theater and play with verses almost with a gourmet delight. Crudup's role is more rewarding because it is ambiguous in terms of his sexuality and his approach to acting. Claire Danes is professionally charming and likable, and for the third time, experienced Tom Wilkinson plays his part as the theater director effortlessly, actually basing his career on Shakespearean plays.... Overall impression 80%.
