The film, which in the Russian box office called “Beauty in English” / Stage Beauty directed by Richard Ayre. I liked the movie. It is told about those times when all female roles were played by men in the English theater and about the end of this time. The main characters are the actor Kinaston (who really existed) and the girl in love with him, who became the first English woman actress. I don’t know how much the story told corresponds to the real facts, but the filmed well and the actors play well (starring B. Crudup and Claire Daynes). Rupert Everett deserves a special mention in the grotesque role of King Charles - quite funny.
