WOWOWOW! Bill hits a homer

[Guest guest]

I got a ton of mail today about Henry and Bill. He can still knock

one out of the ballpark!!! 400 years later and he's still the best

there ever was.

I have lost my ability to read in this, to read, concentrate and

remember. I hate that most of all. For those of you who liked Henry,

you can rent the video and see the speech. It's near the end of the

play but the whole play is very good. It was nominated for an .

It stars Branaugh and i. And Emma . (when

they got along). It is VERY good. Battle scenes are gory but the

film is really good! And my other Shakespeare film? It's from 1968-

69 and it's by Franco Zefferelli with Leonard Whiting and Olivia

Hussey. It's Romeo and t. yeah, they sort of hacked up the

speeches but the cadences with which they say them are just

breathtaking. I can still hear them, even though it's 30 some years

later. I used it when I taught eighth grade. All those hard tough

kids. We were in a movie theater and Ihad to hand out Kleenex. It's

pretty powerful. So those are two good ones, even for foggy brains

like ours.

And when the speech comes, you'll see what I was talking about. How

the odds were just overwhelming. And they made it!

Take care,
