I'm sharing this here because I am still glowing.
This is the conversation I had with Owen this afternoon on the way to bowl with the cub scouts:
Owen: "Mom, what was Othello's flaw?"
Me: "What?"
Owen: "Othello. Most of Shakespeare's lead characters have flaws."
Me: "Well, I'd say it was lack of trust. He didn't trust his wife and it made it easy for Iago to trick him into killing her."
Owen: "Oh. I know what Hamlet's flaw was. Indecision."
Me: "You're exactly right."
Owen: "What's your favorite film adaptation of Shakespeare's plays?"
Me: "Romeo and Juliet. Franco Zeffirelli did a great job with that."
Owen: "The one from the 60s with Leonard Whiting?"
Me: "Yes. Leonard Whiting played Romeo and Olivia Hussy played Juliet."
Owen: "Yes. In 1968."
Me: "But I also loved Kenneth Brannaugh's Henry V."
Owen: "You know, Kenneth Brannaugh is SIR Kenneth Brannaugh now. He was knighted."

So, I'm reading more about Petraeus and his affair with his biographer Broadwell and this whole situation is a trip. Apparently, Broadwell became jealous of another woman (not P's wife) who he was close to and sent this woman threatening email messages. Said woman "was so frightened that she went to the FBI for protection."
What.a.clusterfuck. Homeboy has a real life "fatal attraction" going on.

I'm still freaking. He then told me how Richard the III made the audience feel sorry for him at the end because he had lost everything and was dying in battle without a horse, shouting, "A horse, a horse! My Kingdom for a horse!"

Okay, who wants to go shopping with me? I need to buy a couple of pairs of shoes and a couple of jackets or cardigans for work, and I don't want to do it online.
CURSE THIS LACK OF TELEPORTATION.
Awww, Owen! So awesome!

I'm flipping out. I know he has read all the plays--just reading about them. But he's really understanding the subtext of what they are about. I can't wait to read and watch the plays with him.
