Richard Burt writes

 >Wow.  What bizarre responses to my post.   For the record, I simply 
described the film.

Perhaps now is a good moment for Richard Burt to explain the purpose of 
his posts.  What is the point of 'simply' describing a film if he has no 
comment to make upon it?  Most of Mr Burt's posts seem to consist of 
describing any tangential reference to Shakespeare that he finds in 
popular culture, but to what end?  He never explains to the rest of us 
why he wants to draw our attention to these references.  So if he's not 
giving us his opinion in order to provoke discussion, what's the point?
