Episode 16: Michael Almereyda's Cymbeline

Episode 16: Michael Almereyda's Cymbeline Aven McMaster, Mark Sundaram, & John Kelly Download We review Ethan Hawke & Ed Harris's Cymbeline (2014), a movie that wasn't well received when it came out, but may offer interesting insights into the Shakespearean play it adapts. Is it a flat production of a poor play, as many critics said, or a philosophically coherent interpretation of work that offers us surprisingly existential insights into the violence of the modern world? Join Aven, Mark, & John as they work through their reactions to this sometimes perplexing movie.
