30 Days of Shakespeare - Day 24-25
Aug. 11th, 2010 09:40 pmDay #24: An Actor or Actress You Would Love to See in a Particular Role
Okay, I was actually discussing this with
ladybretagne. I want to see (here read: WORK ON) Hamlet with Jamie Bamber as Hamlet and Douglas Sills as Claudius/Ghost of Hamlet Sr. It would be the most awesome thing ever and I would curl up in my Shakespeare happy place forever and ever. I would also be interested in Henry IV I & II with Jamie as Hal and Doug as Falstaff, though I think Jamie is getting a trifle old for Hal.
Day #25: Sooner or Later, Everyone Has to Choose: Hal or Falstaff?
Which leads directly into this question, which may be the easiest question of the month. HAL. I don't like Falstaff, I don't find him or his methods funny, I will pick Hal every day of the world. However, if the question was Hal or Hotspur, then it would be hard. Because I adore Hotspur in Henry IV I and then I'm completely on Hal's side by Henry V, what can I say? I'm fickle.
