Day 117


Amanda Bynes.

Shakespeare Comedies + High School Movie Genre = Good Fun!

10 Things I Hate About You.
O.
She's The Man.
Deliver Us From Eva (well, maybe not this one!)

Movies based on Shakespeare not only tend to garner good reviews but they usually have decent box office takes.

Why?
Timing possibly?
Star Power?
The Conceptual Realization of the Work?

or
The Source Material?

One wagers to believe its the latter.
Shakespeare was good.

You can gather nearly every play he wrote and mold it into any time period, situation, and concept and come out with the same message, laughs, tears, and theatrical enjoyment.

The possibilities are unending.

Amanda Bynes conquering of different accents...keep trying.
