Feeling jealous

O

Okay, not at all familiar with Othello, so I'm not going to say anything about this in terms of the original play.

One thing I do want to say though: am I the only one who has a problem with Mekhi Phifer playing a high school student? The guy was 27 when he filmed this, and he looks like he's got ten years on everyone else in his year. Some people can get away with playing school kids well into their mid-twenties. Mekhi Phifer isn't one of them.

Not a bad film though. Hartnett's performance was good, Phifer's -- despite the occassional feeling that he should have been coaching the high school basketball team rather than playing in it -- was also good.

Later . . .
