In the organizer's words:
In the "Film & Theater" series by Cinema Quadrat and the Nationaltheater Mannheim, the NTM dance evening "Shakespeare & Love" is accompanied by the sophisticated romantic comedy
SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE
USA/GBR 1998. D: John Madden. D: Gwyneth Paltrow, Joseph Fiennes, Geoffrey Rusch, Colin Firth, Judi Dench. 124 min. EnglOmdtU. FSK: 6
William Shakespeare is struggling with writer's block on his new play "Roman and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter". Then he meets Lady Viola, who wants to become an actress. He falls in love with her, but she is engaged. And incidentally, women were not allowed to perform on English stages in the 16th century.
This historical romantic comedy wittily and highly entertaining tells the fictional love story between William Shakespeare and the noblewoman Viola de Lesseps, which inspired him to write his play "Romeo and Juliet" - seven Oscars!
