Witty, playful and utterly magical, the story is a compelling romantic adventure in which Rosalind and Orlando's celebrated courtship is played out against a backdrop of political rivalry, banishment and exile in the Forest of Arden - set in 19th-century Japan.

David Oyelowo was the stand out performance for me, Bryce Dallas Howard and Adrian Lester are great as always.

you either commit to the japanese context, setting, cast etc OR you commit to the british context, setting, cast etc because otherwise you end up with an adaptation that is neither here nor there mr branagh
