King Lear turned out to be very different than I expected it to be. It was like they had two different time periods going on with their elizabethean style clothes, and their guns. Once I got over that, It was just trying to understand what they were saying and watch the characters interactions that was a little tricky. I was trying to watch the movies, understand it, analyze it, and then relate it to the deconstruction theory. However, I think that when we take our notes on the movie and put them with our notes on our theory they'll contect better; especially after we've had a week to digest what we watch. I'd like to take this time to have a funeral my dude the fool, his death came out of nowhere. These men barged in, the noose came out, he failed and was dead. His death is the one that impacted me the most. He was the only one who was truthful to the king, and he did it in a hilarious way (although the head on a stick was a little creepy). Next on the list to dicuss is Glouster. First of all, I want to mention that if someones eyes were ripped out of their head, I'm pretty sure they would die or at least pass out from pay. Whatever though. Glouster got screw over by his some, But I guess that's what you get when you say the only good thing about him was the sex glouster had when he was received. He trusted his son to not tell the daughters that he was aiding the king. But good ole Edmond went and told them because he wanted to marry them to gain power; Overall; the whole play boils down to King Lear trusting the wrong daughters which leads to everyone he cares about dying.
