Beatrice (Emma Thompson) and Benedick (Kenneth Branagh) share a tender moment as he
reveals his true feelings for her in “Much Ado About Nothing.”
Adaptation of Shakespeare filled
with love, laughs in 16th century
;
“Much Ado About
Nothing"
It’s about damn time.
Finally, “Much Ado About Noth
ing” arrives in Lincoln, four months
after its national release.
It was definitely worth the wait.
Through this lushly photographed,
richly acted film, Kenneth Branagh
again makes Shakespeare accessible
to mere mortals.
In addition to directing and adapt
ing the play for the screen, Branagh
stars as Benedick, a man determined
never to fall to the wiles of women.
Emma Thompson — Branagh’s
real-life spouse—co-stars brilliantly
as Benedick’s nemesis, Beatrice. She,
too, has sworn off love.
But theirs is not the central love
story—which belongs to young lov
ers Hero (Kate Beckinsale) and
Claudio (Robert Sean Leonard), whose
love is tortured by the jealous and
mean spirited Don John—played by
a frightfully miscast Keanu Reeves.
In a stroke of genius, Branagh cast
Denzel Washington as Don John’s
brother, Don Pedro, a war hero whose
return sparks both love stories and his
brother’s revenge. Washington’s
Pedro is wise and latches a mischie
vous plan to unite Benedick and
Beatrice.
Shakespeare always has a fool, and
Michael Keaton does an interesting,
albeitdistracting, take on the bumbling
constable.
Too much happens too well to
reveal, so suffice it to say that “Much
Ado About Nothing” is an absolute
must see, a giddy romp through the
16th century, replete with love ami
laughter.

Doyle said UPC needed to
change the mindset students had
toward the center.
“There is a great deal of diver
sity artistically,” he said.
Aside from traditional perfor
mances like ballet and orchestras,
the Lied’s schedule for fall and
spring includes performances by
Jerry Lewis, two acapella singing
groups—the Bobs and the Nylons,
a cowboy trio, jazz performers like
T.S. Monk and the Gary Burton
Quartet and even a laser light show.
In order to get student input,
Lamphere said, Lied officials meet
with UPC members every year.
Last year, student representatives
asked for more Broadway perfor
mances and dance groups,
Lamphere said.
urner aance groups mciuae
David Dorfman Dance of New
York, which will incorporate per
formances by area athletes Oct. 30
and 31, the Bella Lewitzky Dance
Company in February, the Reper
tory Dance Theatre of Salt Lake
City, Utah, in March, the David
Parsons Dance and Billy Taylor
Jazz Trio in April.
Broadway musicals include
“Man of La Mancha” in January,
“City of Angels” in April and “The
Sound of Music” in June.
“The Wizard of Oz” and “Porgy
and Bess” will also make it to me
Lied stage in November and Febru
ary, respectively.
Students tend to doubt the qual
ity of the schedule, Lampherc said,
but they should understand that they
are getting the best in the nation.
“Students aren’t aware that the
Lied center is one of the premiere
centers for performers in the na
tion, even though it is on a college
campus,” she said.
Inat's true with the NYC Ballet
too, she said.
“Here is an opportunity to see
the finest quality dancers in the
world. This is not junk.”
