John Keats would probably be insulted by my use of his theory of "negative capability"--an open-mindedness that submerges the conscious and allows the subconscious to interpret reality. I attended "Mo... liere" to be entertained, without any intention of connecting the famous actor/playwright's work with historical realism. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie--superb acting, beautiful costuming, and a subtle, witty plot. In my judgment, it is a five-star production. Full Review
