FILMOGRAPHY:
Poet and playwright, he is considered by many of us the greatest writer of all times – along with Dante, we would suggest. He was even the precursor of the film script at a time when the movie industry and relevant tools had not been invented or not even remotely imagined. He was born in Stratford-on-Avon in 1564, maybe on April 23rd, his father was a landowner and glove merchant; his mother was a noblewoman holder of a coat of arms.
