Friday Five: Drama

This week's Friday Five:

1. What was the last stage play you saw? The Book of Mormon on Broadway. It's technically a musical, but I mean, there was acting on a stage, so by definition, it's also a play...
   
   
2. Which film genres do you like most, and which least? As broad as they are, I like dramas (crime, fantasy, psychological, etc.) and comedies (romantic, coming-of-age, musical, etc.) the most; I tend to appreciate dramas more for their plots, but I re-watch comedies more. The genres I like the least are historical, war, and horror.
   
   
3. Why do some people seem always to have some kind of drama in their lives, while others apparently have very little? I think it's how receptive you are to drama. Some people thrive on it, while others shy away from it.
   
   
4. One element of classic tragedy is the hero's tragic flaw. What's yours? Stubbornness.
   
   
5. What are some lines of a play's or film's dialogue you can recite from memory?
