I've already started on this and decided to share in case anyone wanted to join me.

January was Branagh's Much Ado About Nothing (currently available for streaming.)
February was Ian McKellan's Richard III (borrowed from the local library but also available on Max).
March is the 2012 Royal Shakespeare BBC telefilm of Julius Caesar, natch. I got it though ILL but I saw it's also available on Kanopy and may be available for streaming elsewhere. If you're in the UK or have a VPN it may be available from the BBC or the RSC directly.

An extra credit for Richard III -

Looking for Richard, which came out the year after McKellan's Richard III. It's a weird sort of quasi-adaptation - half of it is staged scenes from the play, and half of it is Al Pacino discussing Shakespeare's relevance with people. (There's also a bit about theater's relevance.)
