The Court Jester
1955 · ★ 7.3 · Dir. Melvin Frank
We asked Shakespeare and Francis Bacon would they declare which one wrote this and they both said, “Get outta here!”
A hapless carnival performer masquerades as the court jester as part of a plot against a usurper who has overthrown the rightful king of England.
