Kenneth Branagh continues to make sterling adaptations of classic William Shakespeare plays with this romantic musical-comedy. "Love's Labour's Lost" takes place in 1939, when the King of Navarre and his three best friends make a pact to remain celibate for three years.

But I should have known to trust Branagh, for whom Shakespeare's works have always been alive and real and relevant: his recent Hamlet is the best filmed version of that oft-produced play, and I've rarely seen a movie of any stripe as joyous as his Much Ado About Nothing.
