So this movie released in December 2011, and I stumbled on the trailer by coincidence coz I was looking for the trailer of Contraband!!!
Did anyone else hear of this? Has anyone seen this?? I didn’t even know that William Shakespeare had written something called CORIOLANUS!! I thought I had already read all his famous stories!!
It has one of my favourites..Gerard Butler
and it also has Lord Voldemort!!
Here is the trailer :
The reviews are really good too :
“There’s a fierce critical intelligence at work in Ralph Fiennes’s new adaptation of Shakespeare’s Coriolanus, set somewhere like the war-torn Serbia of the 1990s, a world of rolling TV news, image management and cynical deals cut in smoke-filled rooms. Fiennes makes a powerful case for Coriolanus as an essential, contemporary drama, about democracy, class war and the nation state. It reaches back to the Yugoslavian conflict, and the point is not just to satirise nationalist bullies and butchers, but also the smoothly indifferent mandarin class of western Europe in that era. The film also resonates with the Arab spring, where democratic gains can be annulled by the military.”
