The Prince and Me
So I watched this cheesy romantic comedy on HBO with Julia Stiles and Hamlet. Okay, not actually Hamlet, but if you’re going to be a prince of Denmark, accept your fate and be called Hamlet.
Anyway: Wow, pretty lame. Also: Allegedly set at the University of Wisconsin, only I went there and that wasn’t it. No matter what movie-makers believe, throwing cows into a movie does not equal Wisconsin-based authenticity. (Also, based on the number of Czech names in the credits, I suspect Denmark may have been a bit more Slavic than one normally thinks of it being.)
