12.16.04DVD I'm finishing up Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle and decided to watch this to get a taste of London around that time. I still like this movie, although I still think the ending is pretty weak, especially considering the ending of Romeo + Juliet, which I think is one of the greatest endings ever told. I guess it's as good as this movie can do though, considering that it is itself just a shadow of Shakespeare's genius. I think I will get in the habits of writing sonnets though, for love both fulfilled and unrequited. Yeah, it's corny but I bet it's the sort of thing that still gets women all hot and bothered.
