Well, so long as you don't mind a lot of silly girlish babbling (...no, I don't babble much, because I never post). Ah, and there are technical whatnots on the internet?!
I have not ventured into said youtube comments... hm. But it would be terrible if everybody reacted the same way, I suppose. Also I think it's something you can look at a little differently each time you see it. Well, in the end I'm glad we watched it in school - because I guess I wouldn't be here otherwise! - my teacher was a bit eccentric, and I must say I think he's very cool for showing Danton. However - I don't think he himself had considered it in so much depth, he certainly didn't mention any of that to us (although I do recall him going on about the Polish actors..) - I do think it would have been even cooler shown in some other context. Like a politics class? Too bad we had no such thing at my school, except for what passed for a course on American democracy. I don't know where Wajda would have fit in between this-is-what-pork-barrelling-is-so-never-ever-skip-jury-duty-exam-friday.
