Prospero's Books
I love the story of Shakespeare's The Tempest, with its banished magician, the spirit Ariel, the monster Caliban, and the wondrous intersection of magic, dreams and starcrossed politics. I never saw this film by Peter Greenaway, but I like some of the images I've seen. Greenaway is one of the world's most pretentious directors, but he has astonishing visual gifts.
