I was hoping that this would be the opening feature at SIFF this year. Mostly because I wanted to see Joss Whedon and Company. I knew the guests would not disappoint, and I did not really expect the film to disappoint either, but... you see, I have always been a huge fan of Joss Whedon due to the superior writing he brings to all of his projects, I was uncertain if directing with someone else's words would deliver the same impact.
It does.
Filming in his own home and casting faces Whedon fans will be familiar with, it is charming and delightful. Amy Acker is a standout as Beatrice, and Nathan Fillon brings his self-deprecating style to a wonderful Dogberry. I hope that this film gets a broader release so that everyone has an opportunity to view it.
