Here's another way to celebrate the Royal Shakespeare Company's Michigan Residency: On Thursday, October 26, UM professors Barbara Hodgdon and Jim Burnstein will consider the cultural phenomenon of Shakespearean films in "Shakespeare Goes to the Movies: The Two-Dimensional Bard." The talk will include film clips from Trevor Nunn's 1972 Antony and Cleopatra, Fred Wilcox's 1956 Forbidden Planet, and Peter Greenaway's 1991 Prospero's Books. Join us for the discussion, 4-6 p.m., in the Lower Level Multi-Purpose Room.
