This film of a staged Shakespeare play is free on Youtube until 7pm UK time on Thursday 11 June 2020. The captions are accurate. There's also an audio described version. It is SO GOOD. (And I don't mean ONLY the slashy scene from 1:38:00 to 1:42:33.)

(Content note: Violent and seriously gory. Yes, they managed to make a stage play gory.)

It's really good.
