Description
Release Date:
27 December 2004
London 1660's, and actor Ned Kynaston (Billy Crudup - Almost Famous) is sitting pretty; the brightest star in restoration theatre. Women are forbidden to appear on stage, so the beautiful, brazen Ned shines in all the great female roles. Maria (Claire Danes - Romeo + Juliet), his loyal dresser, looks on with admiration - and just a touch of envy.
But when Charles II (Rupert Everett - Shakespeare in Love) changes the law, banning cross-dressing male actors, it needs Ned's once-glittering career into freefall and gives Maria the chance to capture the role she's always dreamed of and make the man she's idolized from afar finally notice her.
