| The two Shakespeare tragedies I don't like very much. They're the only two Shakespeare plays I think of as overrated. | |

| I actually prefer the opera, Verdi's "Otello". Saw a great performance at the Met years ago with Placido Domingo, Justino Diaz as Iago and even better, the fabulous singing and a very believable Desdemona of Kiri Te Kanawa. | |

| I think I like OTHELLO the play more than some of you here, but I do agree that the opera is a great improvement in that the storytelling is much more concise and therefore more powerful, aside from the glorious music. Boito wrote a really superb libretto for that opera. | |

| The film of the opera produced by Cannon is quite good: Domingo, Diaz, and Katia Ricciarelli. | |
