Film

[hils]

I finally watched Rosencrantz And Guildernstern Are Dead. I'm very glad I waited until after I re-read Hamlet or I'd have had no idea what the hell was going on. LOL!

I loved this film! I was in stitches through most of it. Especially when Guildernstern (or was it Rosencrantz) kept inventing stuff but it going wrong whenever he tried to show anyone. LOL!

Questions and answers was also most amusing. Tom Stoppard is an incredibly intelligent man

I want to watch Shakespeare in Love again now

*giggle* I remember being enthralled with the play when I was in hs---it premiered in 1967 and every budding drama student around knew the whole 'verbal tennis' match inside out by the time I got to college. ROFL! They could not have cast the movie version more perfectly. Gary Oldham's idiot-savant act never ceases to reduce me to helpless giggling.
