well, recently i've been doing nothing. particularly nothing. okay, i did do some things, to do with my university and stuff. but exception from that and CHORES! i've been lying in bed and watching movie! tv series got kinda boring for me, so i wanted a change. it all started out with the trailer for The Other Boleyn Girl, then Shakespeare in Love. because i was interested in english historical context type, though Shakespeare in Love isn't exactly historical, but the ancient-ness of it, made me want to watch it.
starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Joseph Fiennes

well, just a short summary. its basically depicting how William Shakespeare (one of the most renown english play writer and poet) wrote Romeo and Juliet. Its pretty much a beautiful movie, involving humour and laughter. but the question lies behind is whether Shakespeare really wrote Romeo and Juliet with such situation. anyhow, i still love this movie. it was the winner for (don't know how much academy awards) but the english within the movie consist a bit of "old english" usage. therefore, it may be hard to understand. but i instantly "fell in love" with "Shakespeare within the movie." So romantic, and his expression when looking as gwyneth paltrow. as the photo shown below is one of my favourites (: so much i wish my boyfriend could write beautiful love poetry ;)
Lady Viola as Juliet and Shakespeare as Romeo
starring Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, and Eric Bana

This movie kind of based on historical facts, although not everything stated within the movie was true. but its interesting, on how the church of england arise, and why king henry VIII did what he did. in addition, the virgin queen was born, which changed many things in the english history (i hope what i'm saying is true) the storyline is based on a novel written by (i don't know who) about two boleyn sisters . mary and anne. one is served as a mistress and the other makes king henry VIII make her queen. be whole story is actually kinda complicated. so better if you watch it for yourself. but its really only recommended for people find historical context interesting.
