02 - Doth Mother Know You Weareth Her Drapes?

Almost immediately after establishing the show's mission statement, Tony decides to break it this week by picking the flicks himself and doing a Shakespeare at the movies special.Joined by long time friend and professional drama teacher Louise Macarthur-Clare, who is something of a Bard buff, they talk through some brief history of the playwrights appearances on film, before hacking into several adaptations.They cover HENRY V, the 40's Olivier version, plus the two major ROMEO & JULIET adaptations in the 1960's & 1990's - guess which one Tony hates and Lou loves.With a whistle stop tour of 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU and a look at the new MACBETH, they finish as Tony conducts the first QUESTION TIME and poses Lou eight Shakespeare film questions for her to answer.Is this a podcast I see before me?
