Kenneth Branagh's All is True earned an extra two stars from me for its sublime recitation - twice - of Shakespeare's own Sonnet No. 29, and for showing beautiful scenery of the English countryside. But I have a better idea: Instead of wasting nearly two hours in front of your television (or even worse, paying to sit through this snooze fest of a film in a theater), simply google Shakespearean Sonnet 29 and English Countryside, Images.
As Shakespeare himself forewarned in Richard II: "I wasted time, and now doth time waste me." The Bard might very well have been referring to watching All is True.
