Shakespeare in Love is a 1998 motion picture. In this dramatic comedy/romance, William Shakespeare is portrayed as a young, struggling playwright, plagued by money shortages, problems with women, and writer's block. Some of the characters and their lines are references to lines and characters in real Shakespeare plays -- implying that these inspire the film's Shakespeare later in life. Most of the film's major plot devices are also taken from Shakespeare.
The film is largely fictional, although it is based around several actual historical characters. It won a number of Academy Awards in 1998, including Best Picture and Best Actress. Notably, the film became the first comedy to win the Best Picture award since 1977's Annie Hall. | |
