The Oscar season is around the corner, and William Shakespeare is once again frequenting the red carpet, so why not look back and talk about a film that won 7 (!) Academy Awards, and is literally one of the best films of all time when it comes to the bard. I’m talking of course, about Shakespeare in Love (1998).Joining me today is Darren Freebury-Jones, another fan of this oeuvre.Darren has written many books about Shakespeare and his contemporaries.
