Much ado about nothing by William Shakespeare ; Samuel Goldwyn Co. presents a Renaissance Films production ; adapted for the screen by Kenneth Branagh ; produced by Stephen Evans, David Parfitt, and Kenneth Branagh ; directed by Kenneth Branagh.

Summary:

With his wedding a week away, hot-blooded Claudio can't wait to marry the beautiful young Hero. To distract him, his best friend Don Pedro devises mischief: a romantic trap for the sharp-tongued Beatrice and the man she loves to hate, Benedick. Their amusement is almost spoiled by the jealous scheming of the rakish Don John, but love and laughter prevail when the local constable unwittingly exposes the plot--and all the trouble proves to be much ado about nothing.
