In this adaptation of Oscar Wilde's witty play about mistaken identities, Algernon Moncrieff (Rupert Everett) and Jack Worthing (Colin Firth) cause trouble as two proper gentlemen in 1890s London who use the same pseudonym. At a country estate, they fall in love with two ladies -- Cecily (Reese Witherspoon) and Gwendolyn (Frances O'Conner) -- but the hilarious confusion that ensues from their deceptions may just sink their chance at romance.
Twee, but good fun. I liked the way they visualised Cecily's fantasies, something that worked well in the film context, as it would be near impossible on the stage.
