And I truly am. I just got home from a film of a Shakespeare that I went to see with my friends and I absolutely loved it. I'm really surprised at how amazing the film was... and it wasn't even a proper film. The play was Henry IV part 1. I laughed so much during it (I'm surprised that I laughed so much during a Shakespeare play), I never even thought that this play was supposed to be so funny. I gladly have a new item to add to my list of things I want to do before I die, see a Shakespeare play at the globe theatre.
I've watched a film adaptation of the play in class before but it was nowhere near as good as this one. The actors were charismatic and very entertaining to watch, I felt compelled to keep watching (even though the thing was about three hours long) and the actors were just brilliant. Especially the actor that was playing the character of Falstaff. He was by far the most entertaining and one of the most hilarious characters I have ever seen in a film/play. Can I just say again, that I never thought that Shakespeare could funny!
Sadly, none of my classmates are going to believe me when I tell them about it at school tomorrow. Oh well...
Have an awesome week guys
DFTBA
