Chris continues Shakespeare Month\xa0with guests Mike White of the Projection Booth, film critic Oscar Moreno, and Quinn Fleming to talk Ran,\xa0Akira Kurosawa's classic adaptation of King Lear.\xa0The film follows Hidetora Ichimonji, a Japanese lord, as he abdicates his throne to his three sons who then turn on him. He then descends into his own mental hell as his empire collapses all around him destroying everything he had ever worked for.
