Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn one of his scenes with Judi Dench, Kenneth Branagh was supposed to directly cite lines from William Shakespeare's work, but he got it slightly wrong, so Dench started to laugh at the mistake. In retort, Branagh quipped "You can probably finish it!", which she promptly did. All of this was obviously not scripted, but nonetheless kept for the finished film.
- GoofsWhen talking to the Earl of Southampton, Shakespeare repeatedly addresses him as "Your Grace". When addressing an Earl, the correct form is "My Lord" (only a duke, archbishop or monarch would be addressed as Your Grace). The real William Shakespeare spent enough time around nobility to be well aware of the correct title to use.
- Quotes
William Shakespeare: If you want to be a writer, and speak to others and for others, speak first for yourself. Search within. Consider the contents of your own soul. Your humanity. And if you're honest with yourself, then whatever you write, all is true.

Featured review
First, its special beauty has as source the status of hommage to William Shakespeare by Kenneth Branagh. If you do not ignore the great adaptations of the plays by Branagh, you understand why "All Is True" is a real special film. Second - for splendid photography . And for magnificent portrait of Anne Hathaway by Dame Judy Dench. And for the moments when the Shakespeare resemblance becomes almost...magic. And the music, off course. And the delicate use of themes.
Sins ? For me , it seems too...didactic. You know the life, you know the plays, you do not forget the verses. And you need a Shakespeare alive, of small gestures, not a package of explanations. I feel the meetings with the Earl of Southampton and Ben Jonson not real inspired used. Cliches, again and again, parts of lessons and something who you know deserves be better.
But, I admitt, I love it. For beauty, with so many faces and sources. And, off course, for "sins". And my old admiration for Kenneth Brannagh is more significant at the end of this film.
