All Is True

Having so often memorably interpreted the artist, Kenneth Branagh changes things up and considers Shakespeare the man, portraying the Bard in this intriguing biopic centering on the last year of the playwright’s life. Returned to Stratford-upon-Avon after the Globe Theatre’s destruction by fire, Shakespeare faced a cool reception from spouse Anne Hathaway (Judi Dench) and distant daughters Susanna (Lydia Wilson) and Judith (Kathryn Wilder). With Ian McKellen as Henry Wriothesley. 101 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; featurettes; theatrical trailer.
