The Tempest (2010)

Julie Taymor is the Writer, Producer and Director of Julie Taymor’s adaptation of “The Tempest”. The main character in this version, Prospera (Dame Helen Mirren), is now Prospera. Women who practiced the magic arts of alchemy in the 16th and 17th centuries were frequently convicted for witchcraft. Taymor’s story shows Prospera being taken by her brother, and she is sent with her daughter of four years on board a ship. It’s an island, and Prospera ends up there. There is no society so Miranda (Felicity) becomes the father figure. The power struggle between Caliban and Prospera (DjimonHounsou), which is not about strength but intellect, leads to this balance.
