Othello

[1995, Movie, R, 124 mins]

Othello: Review

Jealous guy: Laurence Fishburne, Kenneth Branagh

Get us Central Casting, pronto. Laurence Fishburne is an actor of no little talent, but he lacks Othello's martial bearing and heroic stature. Meanwhile, doughy mediocrity Kenneth Branagh can't begin to make sense of Iago's motiveless malevolence. Oliver Parker's screen adaptation is a singularly inept condensation, and his tentative direction only adds to the confusion: Like the base Indian, he threw a pearl away richer than all his tribe. We're perplex'd in the extreme.
