My son (grade 8) is reading "The Merchant of Venice." I was wondering if there is any dvd version of the play that is true to the original and suitable for a young teen. I looked online a bit, but couldn't really make up my mind. Has anyone ever used a dvd for this?

We watched the one with Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons and Joseph Fiennes. Sooooooo good! We really enjoyed it.
I can't say if it would be appropriate for your young teen. I tend to be more lenient than some.

We saw the same version of Merchant of Venice. We enjoyed it immensely. And that is one of my favorite Shakespearean plays...
