The Two Gentlemen of Verona
Valentine and
Proteus are best
friends, until
they fall in love
with the same
girl. Having
travelled to
Milan in search
of adventure,
they both fall for
the Duke's
daughter Silvia.
But Proteus is already sworn to his
sweetheart, Julia, at home in Verona, and
the Duke thinks Valentine is not good
enough for his Silvia. With friendship
forgotten, the rivals' affections quickly get
out of hand as the four young lovers find
themselves on a wild chase through the
woods, confused by mistaken identity and
threatened by fierce outlaws before they
find a path to reconciliation.
