Al Pacino vise à présenter la vision populaire de l'œuvre de l'écrivain William Shakespeare, à travers des séquences filmées de la pièce de théâtre Richard III, jouées par une troupe d'acteurs (Al Pacino interprétant dans ces scènes le rôle de Richard III), et des interviews d'acteurs, de spécialistes du théâtre, ou d'inconnus interrogés dans les rues new-yorkaises. Il y a juxtaposition des scènes de répétitions de la pièce de Shakespeare Richard III et des parties où il est question de la mise en scène.

He's hired as a short-order cook in a local diner where he meets Frankie, a pretty but emotionally damaged waitress who is trying to move on with her life after getting out of an abusive relationship just a couple years prior to the start of the film. Her only friends seem to be her friendly gay neighbor Tim (Lane) and her fellow waitresses at the diner. Johnny attempts to win Frankie's heart but quickly realizes it will be quite a challenge in this true-to-life romantic dramedy.

Vivian Bearing (Emma Thompson) is a professor of English literature known for her intense knowledge of metaphysical poetry, especially the Holy Sonnets of John Donne. Her life takes a turn when she is diagnosed with metastatic Stage IV ovarian cancer. Oncologist Harvey Kelekian prescribes various chemotherapy treatments to treat her disease, and as she suffers through the various side-effects (such as fever, chills, vomiting, and abdominal pain), she attempts to put everything in perspective. The story periodically flashes back to previous moments in her life, including her childhood, her graduate school studies, and her career prior to her diagnosis. During the course of the film, she continually breaks the fourth wall by looking into the camera and expressing her feelings.

Giles est considéré comme un bon à rien par son père, le comte de Bateson, et il est d'ailleurs exclus de l'université pour avoir trop fait la fête. Le comte refuse de lui pardonner tant qu'il n'aura pas gagné par lui-même une demi-couronne. Giles se rend alors chez son parrain, M. Annesley, où il accepte d'être jardinier. Là-bas, il rencontre Sally, la fille d'un pauvre pasteur, alors qu'elle était en train de voler des roses pour la paroisse de son père, et il tombe amoureux d'elle. Quand Sally apprend que Giles et son père sont fâchés, elle fait le vœu de les réconcilier. Elle se rend chez le comte, le charme et devient pour lui une personne de confiance. Lorsqu'elle se blesse en essayant de cueillir des herbes pour soigner sa goutte, le comte lui rend visite. En route, il s'arrête à une auberge et donne une demi-couronne pour qu'on soigne son cheval. En fait c'est Giles qui reçoit cet argent, et l'ayant gagné honnêtement il est pardonné par son père et il se marie avec Sally en ayant la bénédiction du comte.
