The Court Jester (1955)

Poster for The Court Jester

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.
