Looking forward to seeing King Lear in the Stratford Festival HD: From Stage to Screen Series tonight. I could do much worse for a cheat-sheet on the play than the above summary. It almost puts me in the mood to review the movie from the standpoint of a Joe Bob Briggs Drive-In Movie Report.
But the main reason for this post is to link to this wonderful recap of movie Gloucesters NOT taking a dive off a cliff. The author of the post isn't the only one that tends to inappropriately giggle at the flop. I love the disclaimer and reminder, too.
DISCLAIMER: MANY GLOUCESTERS WERE HURT IN THE MAKING OF THIS POST, BUT NONE OF THEM WERE KILLED BECAUSE, HA HA, THEY WEREN’T STANDING ON THE EDGE OF A CLIFF AFTER ALL, HA HA HA.
REMEMBER, KIDS… The Gloucesters you have seen here are trained professionals. Don’t try this at home.
Enjoy. Be sure and check out the rest of their site! (Goodticklebrain.com or Goodticklebrain on Tumblr)

Writing a post on Lear at this moment. Totally stealing this (but I always give credit).
No problem. Obviously I stole it.
My wife says there's something wrong with me so excited to see a play that is so bleak and depressing.
Looking forward to seeing your post!
