James Fazzaro

I returned from seeing Joss Whedon’s very entertaining adaptation of William Shakespeare’s MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. It has a breezy light-on-its-feet feeling to it, and the comedy is well played without being at all strained. The words are basically Shakespeare’s, and under Whedon’s hand his very game and contemporary cast handle the verbiage with aplomb. Big respect for ANGEL veterans Amy Acker and Alexis Denisof as the leads, respectively as Beatrice and Benedick, and special mentions for Clark Gregg as Leonato and Nathan Fillion as Dogberry. I saw this at the Montgomery Cinemas and it was well projected there, for all locals go check it out there! For the rest, look for it in your area!
