Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I looked up who played Othello in the 1981 BBC production: Anthony Hopkins.
Wasn't he in some movie where he may or may not have been black? I'm completely blanking on the title, though.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Gud, those screencaps of Assassin's Creed may have convinced me tht we need a new, HDTV along with a game system to play it on.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Plays are meant to be done again and again, so I see no reason not to redo them all. Each interpretation can provide a different experience.

BBC redoing all the Shakespeare plays is like the WPA for actors -- you've got to keep them off the streets somehow.

Which may or may not have anything to do with the fact that Anthony Hopkins is pretty fucking white.
I need to see more of these stories from a black point of view. All the black people I know who saw Devil In A Blue Dress were all "That's the reveal???"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
This afternoon is never going to end, is it, even though I get to leave at 3:00.

I was in art school when The Crying Game was released. The reaction was similar.

ita, what's the meeting about? Also, if you are up for it tomorrow, pop by for pie (sweet potato and apple) or turkey. we'll be here.
I am hungry right now. Unsurprisingly. But the turkey is sitting in its brine and I feel the need to go get more ice to ice the sucker down. Sigh. And maybe some mac and cheese and wine glasses.
