Shakespeare Magazine 09

Tom Hiddleston is cover star of Shakespeare Magazine 09! The theme is "Shakespeare at the Cinema" and we review the screenings of both Hiddleston's Coriolanus and Benedict Cumberbatch's Hamlet. We also look at Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard's new film of Macbeth, while the Horrible Histories crew chat about their Shakespeare comedy film Bill. Also this issue, we interview James Shapiro, author of 1606: William Shakespeare and the Year of Lear; and Paul Edmondson, author of Shakespeare: Ideas in Profile. There's also a colourful taste of the glorious poster art from new book Presenting Shakespeare. Not forgetting a profile of Tom Hiddleston's Shakespearean career so far.
