Would I like to see Ann Miller dance in my living room and throw pink scarves in my face?

Sh!#ting on the Classics: Anonymous

In the introduction to this recent post about “Our Favorite Movies We Do Not Believe Anyone Else Has Ever Heard Of,” our fearless leader Patrick Bromley talks about “Opposite Day.” In that spirit, instead of shitting on a classic movie, this week I will let the movie do all the shitting for me. The recent movie Anonymous shits on Shakespeare, shits on its own audience, and shits on common sense. Go see it for Thanksgiving! (Remember, OPPOSITE DAY.)

Sh!#ting on the Classics: William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet

William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996)

Okay, this one writes itself.

I have despised Romeo + Juliet since it was first released. I have taken every opportunity to badmouth this film for the last 15 years. I will go into my “anti-Baz rant” at the drop of any hat in my Film Studies class. I hate this film, and you should too.
