I'd not read this one since high school and for some reason thought it was a tragedy. It wasn’t one of my favorites so I’ve never seen an adaptation or read much commentary and I guess all I could remember was that pound of flesh. And I’ll go ahead and say again that while it’s “good” it’s still not one I prefer and probably won’t pick up again for another fifteen years. Not as flowing or whimsical as "Midsummer" or "Twelfth Night" but certainly not a drudge either (can I get "The Two Gentlemen of Verona"), it somehow leaves one lacking, as if we’ve reached a happy ending under false pretenses. The trial scene is Bill at his best wordplay, as well as many of Shylock's angry rants (he's got a lot of famous quotes), and some of the sickly sweet love boasts (especially between Jessica and Lorenzo) are pretty comical (kids you know). The anti-Semitic rants are frustrating despite "the times" (you sometimes want your literary heroes to rise above such rubbish). With Shylock portrayed as crafty but mainly just red-eyed for revenge, you get the overly worn feeling of “let’s get this guy because he’s a Jew” and not because he’s a bit of a jerk (ok, more than a bit). I was left with the basic impression that this entire ordeal was just a set up for entrapment and the forced renunciation of faith is particularly eye rolling, but all in all, I think we can pretty much smile in the end (which is also, to me, rather abrupt). And there should have been more Launcelot Gobbo. That guy ruled.
