This review is from: Shakespeare in London [VHS] (VHS Tape)

An overview of Shakespeare's life and times. It could be well-used in a high school or junior high class. There's a little too much (for my taste) of the "marriage bed was a prison" gossipy surmising about the Stratford years. There are nice location shots, period music and attractive costumes. It has several quotes from Romeo and Juliet which the kids should like and lots of the sonnets. There are all the theories about the "Dark Lady." It includes info on other Elizabethans--Greene, Henslowe, Marlowe, et al and the theatre as well. I should think it would be a very good addition to a school media center or public library.
