an amazing film and i have only just see it and i already want to see it again . i would never hear of derek jarman before i saw this film but now i be and i can not wait to see his others . the film take a whole new perspective of shakespeare the tempest and i be sure he would have appreciate it for jarman use of the the play theme of love and magic and darkness and atmospheric tension . ok and ok there may have be a bit of nudity in the film which i hadn not really anticipate but it do not offend me and it just surprise me and make the film more unpredictable . one spoiler ( for those of a nervous disposition represent fast forward the flashback scene with sycorax and caliban and ariel a their slave and it pretty graphic . overall and if you be start to find kenneth branagh shakespeare performance flaccid and monotonous then you need to see this film . fantastic and surreal and it will blow you away and but only if you let it . have an open mind and then let this film work it magic on you .
