Coriolanus March 6th, 2014

The second screening was even more intense, people may say it´s because your a Fan of Tom but it´s not, of cause I am crying my eyes out at the scenes of him, but I also cried because of Aufidius, Menenius, Virgilia, and I was not alone. I took my Mum watched the Ralph Fiennes Film with her and read her the Shakespeare play - because she has never learned English but I wanted her to have the expierience what a real Shakespeare Play feels like. Cause we saw Richard III the other time and it was horrible - really really bad - and I could feel her being shaken ... saw how her hand went to her face to get the tears away.

It is indeed tragic - and frustrating at times - and you just ask yourself why did he have to do that ? Why indeed ? The first time he is innocent, yes and banished but in the scond term he is indeed a traitor. But still I wouldn´t have let him die like that - he is a warrior "like a dragon" and then he lets himself get hanged up and his throat cut ? It´s a nice gruesome picture I get it but it doesn´t fit the Character. Well at least not for me.

But aside from that, everything and everyone was just amazing, and I really liked what they did with the Stage and the Music. I loved it - and if it ever be shown in my Area again - I´ll see it again.
