All's Well, Ends Well

Ken Russell’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s "All’s Well That Ends Well" transmutes the Bard’s bawdy comedy into a psychedelic fever dream, set in a chateau where three brothers weave elaborate fibs and playful pranks to curry favor with their ailing father and secure blessings for their burgeoning romances. The film’s vibrant hues and whimsical flourishes underscore the protagonists’ capricious nature, as they navigate the treacherous waters of familial affection and youthful ardor.
