Day #24: An Actor or Actress You Would Love to See in a Particular Role
Okay, I was actually discussing this with [livejournal.com profile] 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.

I Cannot Hide What I Am

I must be sad when I have cause and smile
at no man's jests, eat when I have stomach and wait
for no man's leisure, sleep when I am drowsy and
tend on no man's business, laugh when I am merry and
claw no man in his humour...
I had rather be a canker in a hedge than a rose in
his grace, and it better fits my blood to be
disdained of all than to fashion a carriage to rob
love from any: in this, though I cannot be said to
be a flattering honest man, it must not be denied
but I am a plain-dealing villain. I am trusted with
a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog; therefore I
have decreed not to sing in my cage. If I had my
mouth, I would bite; if I had my liberty, I would do
my liking: in the meantime let me be that I am and
seek not to alter me.
