The Merchant of Venice

Phwoah. I'd rate Michael Radford's The Merchant of Venice to be one of the best modern Shakespeare adaptations.

Al Pacino's acting is awesome. The plot was a breathtaking ride, presenting to the audience different layers of complexity and problems leaving one hopelessly dumbfounded and unanswered. What would you do, if you were in Venice, 1596?

P.S: Thanks sonny sooooooooo much for lending me the dvd you just bought! I felt so bad coz you havent even watched it and i took it away from you. I'm sure you'll love the film as much as I do and I'm so glad you're coming into the same course as me. I owe you one mala! (:
