he just can't help himself, can he? acting all over the place... doesn't he get paid enough already? pfft

i :heart: him

there must be a part of him that is pleased his acting's so good warring with the part that's thinking 'doesn't she know who i am???'

I love this guy. I was lucky enough to see him in Princeton when he performed "Acting Shakespeare"

I got to be on stage with him and he put his hand on my shoulder!

I have washed it since then...but I didn't wanna.

He called people down onto the stage. I was on the second floor. My sister said she'd never seen somebody run so fast. She'd figured it was too far so she didn't try. Since I was last, I was center stage front. Woo hoo!

No, you're right. But I did grab his arm before security escorted me out.

Augh! I haven't. Now I want to! I love Derek SO MUCH! I got to see him in Much Ado About Nothing. SO HAPPY. Permagrin for days after. It isn't available streaming...I'm going to have to...use a DVD? Ewww!

It's a Landover Baptist parody, I think. Admittedly sometimes it can be hard to tell.

My recent fave for actual Christian douchebaggery is this guy:

Win Worley, who recently preached against Dungeons & Dragons and its "occult demons."

I mean, really. Dungeons and Dragons? Are they letting just anyone in on this retro-Eighties kick, now?

Oh, as a lifelong gamer, I can attest that playing these things attracts so many social cooties...

But I hang with the cootie infested anyway.

Well sure, but you'd at least think they'd at least be on to bitching about World of Warcraft or Skyrim or something, though.

Warcraft? What's wrong with Warcraft? Just because you can be a warlock that steals the life from your victims? Just because there's an entirely species-wide diverse group of people that like to kill each other for points?

Skyrim? Just because it's so pretty you want to touch it and you can have a cannibalistic feast in praise of the name of Namira while being a vampire or a werewolf?

Okay, I see their point, kind of.

Praise Molag Bal and I love Sheogorath more than many in my family.

And Sylase. Dragon Age.

And Amonkira. Mass Effect.

See, I have no time to go to actual Church.

I've been seeing a lot of these lately and my daughter hosted an event with book art creation.

It is so very cool. I'm always amazed to see ordinary things become art.

Branagh's Hamlet does a convincing job in Ophelia's being driven to madness.

Have you seen it?

I tend to associate the film with Byron, btw.

I've seen it. I watched it with my daughter and mostly I remember her saying "Mom, what happens to her? Does she have to marry the prince guy?"

Oh honey.

I think it does as good as job as any setting it up, but there's a lot of weird in some Shakespeare where his characters really do not show process so much as outer forces.

His psychology was not top notch.

Look at Taming of the Shrew. Kate was exhausted and dispirited, but I doubt that once she got a nap and a meal that she wouldn't be back to being Kate.
 
we studied The Taming of the Shrew back in my english classes circa '74/75. i always have to give credit to my 'spearian-bearded teacher for bringing it to life, stood up on a desktop, and acting it out :cool:


PETRUCHIO
What, with my tongue in your tail? Nay, come again,
Good Kate. I am a gentleman.

KATHERINE
That I’ll try.

She strikes him.

PETRUCHIO
I swear I’ll cuff you if you strike again.

KATHERINE
So may you lose your arms.
If you strike me, you are no gentleman;
And if no gentleman, why then no arms.

PETRUCHIO
A herald, Kate? Oh, put me in thy books!

KATHERINE
What is your crest? A coxcomb?

PETRUCHIO
A combless cock, so Kate will be my hen.

I do think that the wordplay in that play is some of my absolute favorite...'cause...snark abounding. I remember reading it and thinking I could never ever put together sentences that had five different meanings. Three, maybe but not five.

It's BEAUTIFUL.

I just hate the ending...but Shakespeare didn't really write his own plots. I can't stay mad at him.
 
Much Ado About Nothing reminds me of some many things here.

Do other couples throw Shakepseare lines at each other?
