- While we were waiting for the movie to start, I notified Linda that the music playing in the theater was from the score of "Shakespeare In Love". She, of course, was not surprised that I would know such a thing. It wasn't until 5 minutes into the movie when I realized how appropriate the music was for the film we were about to watch. Duh, Sher. It's Shakespeare!
- I love Joss Whedon, and I love that, like most directors, he likes to work with the same actors as he's worked with before.
- I love seeing Alexis Denisof and Amy Acker working together again! They were really cute as two people who said they wouldn't fall in love. Also, their physical comedy was hysterical.
- If you don't think you'll understand the dialogue because it's Shakespearean, that's OK. Give it a few minutes and you'll get the hang of it. It's been a while since I've listened to anything Shakespearean, so it took a few minutes for me to get my bearings again. But then again, I love the Bard.
- Lovely score. I like that they used the lyrics from the actual play's songs.
- Tom Lenk and Nathan Fillion are hilarious together as partner cops.
- So this is where the Whedons live?! What a gorgeous house! I heard later that she is an architect and designed it herself. I would like for her to design a house for me, and I would ask for a lot of window seats.
- Knave dude just walks in on prince's bro and other knave while they're making out, and then he just keeps on talking to them? I remember that happening in SiL, too. Is that a Shakespearean thing?
- It's hard for me not to see that guy as Agent Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D., but I did like his portrayal of Leonato.
- They sure did drink a lot during this movie.
- I'd like to see another Shakespeare play directed by Joss Whedon. Dare I ask for The Scottish Play?
Random comments about my random activities. If you don't understand all this, that's OK. You're not alone.

Sigh No More, Ladies
After seeing Man of Steel, we had lunch at Islands, then went to DSW so I could find a beautiful pair of blue Bandolino pumps for $38.00. Nice!
Anyway, our 2nd movie for the day was "Much Ado About Nothing".
