Bookends: The opening of the film has Beatrice reciting the "hey nonny nonny" lines from the original play. The last scene of the film has the "hey nonny nonny" sung on the soundtrack.

Adaptation Distillation: Trimming longer scenes and a bit of reorder as well as removing obsolete words.

Cock-a-Doodle Dawn: A shot of the villa at daybreak and a crowing rooster marks the transition between Hero's fake funeral the previous night and Benedick struggling to write a love poem the next morning.

Color Blind Casting: Should a black man (Denzel Washington) be playing a medieval Italian prince? Well, why not? Same logic goes for having Keanu Reeves as his brother.

comment
Adaptational Context Change: The film subtly alters some of Dogberry's scenes so that he actually seems to somehow take being called an ass as a genuine compliment.
