Reviews are mixed so far, apparently. Nonetheless, I can't wait for the Taymor *Measure for Measure*.
Michael, I'm at act II in the Kozintsev *King Lear*. Why doesn't Lear have a beard?

Wow -- who knew The Tempest was as explosive and spectacular (and loud) as "Lord of the Rings"!?
I've wondered for a long time why no one's made a real film of the play. I wasn't a huge fan of "Titus," but Taymor is brilliant and she's got some good actors in the mix. Should be a treat. Michael, you'll probably see it before any of us -- send your review once it's ready!
