i come at this film with high expectation . i be aware of greenaway work and the tempest and be interest in an adaptation . i first want to switch off after ten minute and but felt that it would be unfair . there be a representation of a storm and but where in your mind do you conceive a small boy peeing over a toy boat . it be symbolic of what . i continue another ten minute my finger twitch over the off button and somewhere something would capture my interest . this be not shakespeare and it be not cinema . there be a time and place for it and but i will not waste my time and there be no place for it in my study of shakespeare . after twenty five minute i give up and that be the end . i then read all the comment on this website and the pretentiousness of the film be only match by it defendant . it a painting . then put it in a gallery and it a ballet . keep it on the stage then . shakespeare can be do intelligently and and the play be perform to mass audience and they be accessible and and this version help put a wedge between shakespeare and the general population at large and i do not think that the bard would be happy with that .
