Call No: DVD SHK Fic As You (1983) Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: Stratford CollectionSummary Note: Considered one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies, As You Like It is, on one level, a merry amusement, but on a deeper level, the characters discuss love, aging, the natural world, and death. Rosalind, the daughter of the banished Duke Senior, falls in love with Orlando, the disinherited son of one of the duke's friends. When she is banished from court by her usurping uncle Duke Frederick, Rosalind disguises herself as Ganymede and travels with her loyal cousin Celia and the jester Touchstone to the Forest of Arden where her father and his friends live in exile. Orlando joins the outcasts and, seeing an opportunity to test his love, Rosalind engages him in a game of role-playing. By the play's end, Rosalind marries her Orlando, and Celia and Orlando's mean older brother Oliver are also wed. As Oliver becomes a kinder young man, so does Duke Frederick change his ways, and the exiled Duke Senior rules once again.

-- Rome, the complete series.2009., Adult, HBO Home Entertainment Call No: DVD Fic Rome Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: Season One: Four hundred years after the founding of the Republic, Rome is the wealthiest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis of one million people, epicenter of a sprawling empire. The Republic was founded on principles of shared power and fierce personal competition, never allowing one man to seize absolute control. But now, those foundations are crumbling, eaten away by corruption and excess. After eight years of war, soldiers Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo unwittingly become entwined in the historical events of ancient Rome. A serialized drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, husbands and wives, Rome chronicles a turbulent era that saw the death of a republic and the birth of an empire.
