I would’ve rated it higher if Proteus didn’t get a happy ending like how is he going to try and rape Silvia after lying and saying his fiancé is dead, calling her ugly in comparison to Silvia, backstabbing LITERALLY EVERYONE IN THE PLAY. AND STILL GET A HAPPY ENDING?? 
AND WHY DID VALENTINE TRY TO SAY HE COULD HAVE SILVIA IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP HIM RAPING HER?? WHAT. 

Julia?? Why?? Don’t take this man back you can do so much better. 

Also why was the entire conflict of the play cleared up in a single short ass scene? Entire play was filled with conflict but no it’s all solved because the Duke casually changes his mind? Weak

Anyway main takeaway from this waa FuckProteus and JusticeForJulia
