5 stars (Exceptional) Greatest-ever Shakespeare movie. Falstaff is created from 5 different plays and is a new work. Filmed in Spain on a tiny budget, with realistic battle scenes & Welles' acting a revelation! Fine new copy of one of the great films of all time. ~Sandy
4 stars (Very Good) Non Shakespeare fans should find this accessible and entertaining. As well as Welles's fine performance there is a chance to listen to one of the great speaking voices - that of John Gielgud. ~Tubbs
