This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Anne Hathaway Channels Utena

http://www.newyorker.com/images/2009/07/06/p233/090706_r18624_p233.jpg

I'm an utter forum virgin, so I beg your indulgence...
but what commentary does this need?  The gender-bending, the bisexuality, the lovely dark-skinned goddess, the general pathos, the sword-phallus symbolism...

tasty.

(she's playing in Twelfth Night, a Shakespearian comedy)

Re: Anne Hathaway Channels Utena

I always thought there was something hot about Caesario...:clears throat:.  Hey, do you have any links about this because I had no idea about this until now.  But yeah, it really does look like an Utena rip off.  I dig it.

edit:  Found an article related: Link

Re: Anne Hathaway Channels Utena

How come I didn't see it before? In a suit, she REALLY looks masculine (or at least boyish). I guess it's because of the role she played (Ella, Princess Diary, Devil Wears Prada) where she played quite the princess-ish feminine role that I never noticed. I bet her nature is very similar to Utena! Boyish but innocent! emot-biggrin

Re: Anne Hathaway Channels Utena

A filmed performance would be lovely, but I doubt it's going to happen. I would have loved to see this though, as I'm a Shakespeare nerd and I find Anne Hathaway really really cute. Sadly, the play closed mid July.

Happy Holidays Everyone! :3

Re: Anne Hathaway Channels Utena

I'm a lot less interested in Anne Hathaway than in Olivia and Orsino, Audra MacDonald and Raul Esparza.  They have RIDICULOUS amounts of talent between them both acting and singing wise.  Youtube it, people.
