>Are you just very well read or is there an analysis of Shakespeare that you have read?
I've read a few scholars on Shakes. I own the Shakespeare book of Characters, the Dictionary of Quotations, the complete Plays. The French playwrights like the guy who made Becket are more conversational, but I prefer W.S. Started probably with Ken Branagh's adaptations in school... I daydream about making certain adaptations of the Bard's work... I'd like to see an 18th century spin on Macbeth kind of in the Roger Corman mold of Poe adaptations, etc. I draw characters with Shakespeare quotations habitually. I'm not the closest reader but enjoy restructuring dialogue and building on the five act format.
