Beta is a fighting fish. Reggie thinks I'm an evil giant that sometimes feeds him.
I finished King Lear last night. I had some inflated expectations of it, and it's still not my favorite Shakespeare (Macbeth still holds that title), but I still managed to get emotional at a few parts in the play (the eye-plucking and Lear's death scene).
I think Goneril and Regan could be very interesting portrayed by the right actresses, but I don't think they're "just misunderstood" by any means. I wouldn't want them to be, either. They pretty much should be evil.
