Thoroughly enjoyable acting combined with a witty and ironic telling of how Shakespear thought up his 'Romeo and Juliet' While William is in a writing slump Paltrow's character comes along and provides a spark to his muse, while their relationship is kept secret he uses his writing of the play to inflect upon his feelings.
