	Movies - Much Ado About Nothing

Much Ado About Nothing is a 1993 movie based on William Shakespeare's play, it was written and directed by Kenneth Branagh, who also plays Benedick. Young lovers Hero and Claudio are to be married in a week. To pass the time, they conspire with the prince Don Pedro to set a "lover's trap" for Benedick, an arrogant confirmed bachelor, and Hero's cousin Beatrice, his favorite sparring partner and former lover. Meanwhile, the evil Don John, Don Pedro's Bastard brother, conspires to break up the wedding by fooling Claudio into believing Hero is disloyal. In the end, though, through the blundering detective work of constable Dogberry and a cunning ruse conspired by the friar, it all turns out to be "much ado about nothing."
