12/10 -- Birthday Quiz: Forsooth!

A man with a fondness for the Bard celebrates today.

Kenneth Branagh (46 today) is doggedly making his way through adapting all of Shakespeare's plays to film. The latest one checked off the list was "Love's Labours Lost," starring Lloyd Bridges, Louis L'Amour and L.L. Cool J. (No, those guys aren't in it, I'm just in a weird mood today). Branagh used to be half of a classy couple with Emma Thompson and then was rumored to be dating 25-year-old Alicia Silverstone, which I think we can all agree is unseemly at best. What film has Branagh made?
