Since, logically, your response was pretty much a non sequitur.Really. Sincerely. I don't get your criticism. Do you fault Othello for Iago? And your complaint about the film's world view (and then fallaciously--a term from logic, doncha know--attributing it to the director) strikes me as bafflingly hard-hearted and simplistic. Maybe you have more akin to Weaver's character than you care to admit.
original instead of the yellow jacket Cliff notes.
Iago, compared to...ridiculous. Shakespeare's antagonists were multi-faceted human beings with positive as well as negative attributes, with, obviously, the latter outweighting the good. Still, even Hitler loved dogs and that's the problem with most Hollywood charactrerizations: evil has no redeeming parts so that the audience can watch and absolutely have no danger of relating to the "bad guy."
You prefer the slasher mentality wherein bad is bad and good is good. Fine. I doubt you're as dull as you appear and I'll grant you the benefit of the doubt and consider you a guy who enjoys a good argument. Well, you'll have to do much better in the future. I'm responding so others can learn, you're probably so gonzo as to be beyond redemption (why assume false modesty when dealing with a dunderhead?).
