Copies of the DVD are still available on the UK eBay site, for 9.99 pounds. The seller ships worldwide and certainly sent my copy promptly.
I like Shakespeare, but I dislike it when the plays/films have modern costumes and settings. I went to see a theatrical version of the Taming of the Shrew once. It made my feminist blood boil so much I'll never watch the play again.
I once saw a theatrical production of Midsummer Night's Dream four times because it was so good. No ickle pretty fairies, but strange "hand held puppets," very basic scenery and props, were very effective.
