news, views and reviews of Shakespeare on film (and in the Pacific Northwest)
This is a fairly new online journal, dealing (academically) with what one might call the “Steal, but only from the best (namely Shakespeare)” industry. (I, um, have been guilty of giving that a go myself.)
The journal is called Borrowers and Lenders, and its latest issue is here.
Shakespeare's Othello meets Spenser's Faerie Queene in this new and provocative mystery-thriller set in Milwaukee.
This is the story of James Ireton, a gifted young Shakespeare scholar haunted by a tragic past and recurring nightmares of a Knight, a Lady and a vicious Dragon. James thinks they’re just dreams, but when two people close to him fall victim in a seemingly motive-less series of brutal murders, James discovers there may be a very real Dragon preying in the shadows of his life. Worse, if he doesn’t find a bit of St. George in himself, the woman he loves may prove the Dragon’s ultimate victim.
