"Better to read for the dialogues it brings up rather than the actual literature. But then again, the original meaning might've been lost in translation."
"An adaptation of Shakespeare's The Tempest. Set in the Caribbean. It's about power. About the relationship between the colonizer and colonized. It's great. It's beautiful. It made me cry."
