"Love is blind, fickle and true. And under the sway of capricious fairies it becomes blinder (a queen romances a donkey), more fickle (best friends swoon over each other's beaux) and truest of all (lovers repledge their devotion). 'Lord, what fools these mortals be!' in Shakespeare's bewitching comedy. James Cagney, screen-debuting Olivia de Havilland, Dick Powell, Joe E. Brown, Mickey Rooney and others play these mortals and immortals in this double Academy Award winner. Theatrical legend
