Classic Sydney Poitier

Morgan Freeman
Othello Lawrence Fishbourne
Haven't seen this Movie just happen across it..but it's Shakespeare.. ;D
The Moor of Titus Andronicus pretty good rendition of Shakespeare.

I like how they made Ben Yossif out to be a Cut Throat anti-intellectual savage bent on conquring Europe(The White Race)...when in actuality Ben Youssif was against the Andalucian practices that went against the teaching of Islam, such as representations of people in art and sculpture, Drinking alchohol etc. As a matter of fact the Almoravids started a literacy tradition that can be found in Mauritaunia to this day by the descendants of the Almoravids. The Spainish in fact Burned Moorish work. Also the Almoravids and later the Almohads who were worse and more oppressive than the Almoravids started an excellent Architectural style that heavily influenced Spanish Arch. traditions.

Because they needed someone to play the fanatic remember if the descendants of the Moors were telling this story on screen then the Euro~Moors and Christians would have came out as corrupt and immoral. |
