Audience Member interesting use of the Bard Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Unimaginativly directed but expertly acted update of the Shakespeare tragedy. Douglas is fine as always as the tormented and henpecked central character but it is really Ruth Roman who stands out from the rest of the cast. She literally oozes malevolence from every pore in a great study of a remorseless, to a point, rapacious viper. This is a hard to find item that is worth a view. Grab the chance if you can. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is amazing,the best of both world.A classic Shakespeare tragedy with a film noir twist.I love it.
