!!Tropes in the 1996 film adaptation:
* AdaptationExpansion: The 1996 film updates the story to a 19th century-esque setting, and makes a few tweaks to Viola and Sebastian's backstories in particular to make the story work in its new setting. They become travelling performers, and the film actually shows the shipwreck with them being seperated and Antonio diving into the sea to rescue Sebastian. Once Viola is washed up on the shores of Illyria, she disguises herself as a youth not to protect her virtue but because her country, Messaline, is at war with Illyria, and the ship's captain has to instruct her in how to move, act and talk like a man.

* GenderBender: You better believe it. (On top of everything else, all stage roles in Shakespeare's day were played by men ... so Cesario, for example, would be a man dressed up as a woman dressed up as a man. Your basic Shakespearean RecursiveCrossdressing. Got it?)
