Henry V

Rating: 
Length: 138 minutes

version also available

Featured Bears: Brian Blessed   Jimmy Yuill   Derek Jacobi  

Review:
Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Shakespeare's "Henry V" features the EXTREMELY woofy Brian Blessed as the Duke of Exeter. Watching this man stroll into the court of the king of France dressed in full body armour will quicken the pulse of any bear! The movie is great also, and it's what high school students ought to be watching rather than poring over blocks of flowery Shakespearean text.

Featured Bears: Brian Blessed   Jimmy Yuill   Gerald Horan  

Review:
Fun communal bathing scene at the beginning of the movie. There are other bears than just Blessed (Antonio), Yuill (Friar Francis), and Horan (Borachio), but that's a good start!

Rating: 
Length: 124 minutes

Featured Bears: Kenneth Branagh   Laurence Fishburne  

Review:
Yet another Shakespeare movie with great eye candy! Othello (Laurence Fishburne) wears a lovely goatee that goes so well with his big musclebear-ish build, and i'll be damned if Iago (Kenneth Branagh) isn't one helluva cute cub....*sigh* it's always the con men and murderers, eh? i remember watching this in my high school english class and practically swooning during Iago's "put money in thy purse!" speech...my god, he's gorge!
