The actual "enactment" (e.g Gwyneth Paltrow's role in Shakespear in Love) of the effect of one of Shakespeare's sonnets, cause one to have a greater appreciation for the time and environment in which thse sonets were composed.

Sonnet 116.

Which alters when it alteration finds'

Sonnet 20, because I love all the ambiguities.
Sonnet 71, because I like to read it as if the speaker were playing the martyr.
Sonnet 73, because it is a perfect example of how a sonnet's structure works.
Sonnet 129. I call it "The Jimmy Swaggert Sonnet."

Sonnet 76 - in a series of Sonnets on love this sonnet is, for me, at the heart of the sonnets and on love and on the Sonnets themselves. It has a most wonderful sestet. But it's hard to choose a fav, maybe even wrong, perhaps.
