Actors...

Rock on! I happen to believe that the greatest actors of our time are working undiscovered and unpaid on stages all over the world (with the exception of Patrick Stewart).

I agree with everything you have to say about BRANAGH.
His Iago and Benedict seem very much alike. I haven't seen his Hamlet yet. It hasn't opened in my area yet but the previews are scaring me.

Unfortunately, it is a truism that the more money you have to put into a project, the less creative you are forced to be. On one hand, I think Will would have enjoyed the spectacle in BRANAGH films. On the other hand, why is someone who is supposedly so interested in Shakespeare so quick to divert attention from the words? Spectacle is fun, but you can't live on Twinkies.
