Interpreting Shakespeare On Screen

Rating:
Summary: A very thin book
Review: While very clearly written, this book disappoints both in the brevity with which it treats its subject and in the simplistic arguments it makes. The author is upset that filmmakers have not listened to academic (politically correct) critics. Branagh is bashed for being sexist, racist, you name it. Cartmell's book could be pedagogically useful, however, in creating discussion and debate among high school and college students.
