period fidelity to a wide range of other literary adaptations, from the
Arthurian tinges of Thor to the whodunit conservatism of Murder On The OrientExpress, filmmaker and thespian Kenneth Branagh has returned to his
Shakespearean roots to direct and lead a production all about the man himself.
Specifically, a story covering the last three years of the Bard’s life, from
the destruction of the Globe Theatre to his untimely death.
