The Tempest (2010)**
Helen Mirren is superb and compelling as Prospera, the usually male lead in Shakespeare's last play but the direction is confused or at best bland and could have used a more stylized approach as in Prospero's Books. Come to think of it this would have been better as a remake of that with the bonus that Mirren would speak all the lines.
Dear Buck,
ReplyDeleteI loved Ariel.... I wish there would have been a moment of intimacy ; an exchange of affections in the end between the handsome sprite and Prospera...they were rumored to have been close.
They needed a more curvy Miranda though...that chick was a stick! Spice her up!
Helen knows how to act!
Love, Natasha
