SHAKESPEARE

Synopsis

Harcore porn film about an actress named Juliet who stars in a nude production of Romeo and Juliet directed by Dante, the British director. At the end of the film Dante is revealed not to be British but from New Jersey. Lanier (op cit) notes that when Dante’s New Jersey accent is accidentally revealed and challenged he replies that it is necessary in the Shakespearean theatre to sound like a ‘limey’ so people will’assume I’m a second cousin’ to the Bard. Lanier believes this to be one of the most interesting pornographic interpretations.
