No Tears for Caesar

By The Artist Formerly Known As Shatner

For more Shakespearean tomfoolery, check out Manoel de Oliveira’s The Convent, a rethinking of Goethe’s Faust in which scholar John Malkovich sets out to prove Shakespeare was a Spanish Jew. He’s sidetracked, however, by Lucifer and Catherine Deneuve.
