Decent adaptation, with a really interesting introduction/conclusion at the Globe Theater. The camera self-consciously alerts us that we're watching a film (as the play's prologue does), but then transitions into a more classic film style during the middle 80%. I thought this was super interesting. Unfortunately, not sure I really loved the play itself? The comic relief moments stood out as especially odd in this adaptation, with some awful, mannered performances that I thought were hard to watch. Interesting to see this framed as propaganda during the war (especially since Britain and France were on the same side?)
