I cried like I was supposed to....That movie was so sad...why? ...because Shakespeare was a great writer....

..A wonderful happy film is also by that guy...Shakespeare ...."Taming of the Shrew"..........

with Elizabeth Taylor, and Richard Burton... And yes, the two were really in love in that movie, inside and outside of the movie.
