Did a unit at uni on adaptations of Shakespeare and that was really good.
Had one specific-to-Shakespeare course which was, thankfully, run by a very good lecturer who made it enjoyable. Several others had Shakespearean content though. That was probably the source of my frustrations lolDid a unit at uni on adaptations of Shakespeare and that was really good.
Can't remember too much about the texts we studied at high school. Was over 15 years ago now... *Things that make you feel old thread*.
In Year 9 we watched Apocalypse Now which was also great. Studied Hearts of Darkness at uni too.
All's well that ends well then?
Me and some mates spent a few hours a week locked in the school media room allegedly working on a high school horror movie but that was done easy so we spent most of our time watching Die Hard With A Vengeance. One time we missed a whole bomb scare coincidentally.
