Not to mention all-around cool guy. Anyway, here's the story that justifies the title. It's a fun frivolous faith-based feature for a Friday.

How can u go wrong with Gandalf and Magneto rolled into one ?

Must. Rent. Now!

Here's the link. This is a TV version of a stage production directed by Trevor Nunn. There are some directorial excesses and the setting is a big "why?", and it doesn't have the best sound direction, o do watch with subtitles (usually a good idea when watching Shakespeare on video anyway). McKellen is fine (mumbles a bit - keep those subtitles on!!), opera singer Willard White makes a solid and substantial Othello, and Imogen Stubbs' Desdemona is a particularly young, romantic, and highly enegertic interpretation (which I liked - the age difference between O & D is almost as important as the racial one). Enjoy!

If I tore out all I objected to in that book, there'd be more missing than left in the binding. As it is, I prefer to ignore it.

Its presence in hotels and motels simply indicates the lengths to which Christians go to push their bizarre doctrine on others. Perhaps the world's most obnoxious religion.
