Each Tuesday a theme will be decided based on the Anniversary of some significant event. All you have to do is trawl your reviews for any that relate to that event and post them here with a link.
You can post as many as you wish, so long as either the film or your review clearly relates to the theme. You can only post during the week of the current TA:MOU.
You don't have to say you voted unless you really want to - but you are expected to visit all the links posted. As a courtesy to the majority of fwfrs, you may only post a link that uses the http://www.fwfr.com domain name.
From this week each TA:MOU # will be removed when a new one takes its place. This is to deter re-visiting of expired threads. Yours truly Da Management ON THIS DAY in 1613 London's Globe Theatre burned to the ground, just three years before the death of its most famous playwright.
In a TA:MOU moment of high culture versus low culture, you are invited to post your reviews for films which have re-told any Shakespeare play using a modern twist.
For those of you who like a bit of research, sally forth forsooth and assure the Bard will spinneth in his grave.
A Midsummer Night's Dream A Midsummer Night's Rave
Hamlet Hamlet the Vampire Slayer
Henry V My Own Private Idaho

I've got a three more in the pending pile, but thought it best to get on with it... I've taken modern to include 20th Century, which is pretty modern to an Elizabethan...
Tis' done! And now I add two more reviews (Although I fear for most to view, too late); Just passed this very eve with MERPish aid Ralph's "Coriolanus" and "Kiss Me Kate".
