Thanks so much for uploading this!! Helen seems to be playing to the audience at the expense of her character, but I'll not fault her too much. Didn't care at all for Paul Rudd in '98; found him more tolerable this time. The REAL TREAT is Kyra Sedgewick's delightfully ebullient performance as "Olivia"!! One complaint; the bests scenes from of Act III are not here: Olivia exclaiming, "What joy! Two of them!", when she first meets Sebastian, Viola's brother; and the discovery of Viola's deception.
@residentwriter She's done a lot of movies, like "Singles" and "Something to Talk About," but is probably best known today for her role on the TV show, Closer.
My two favorite actresses! Helen hunt and Kyra Sedgwick are awesome! I love this! You have no idea how long it took for me to find this...... I just wish it were the whole thing....
OMG, thank you for posting this. I literally have not seen this since it was originally on PBS. I've always liked this version, but never was able to find it.
