They Really Did That to Othello - Key & Peele
Комедия
Two black men attending the world premiere of “Othello” compare notes after the first act. (Contains strong language.)
About Key & Peele:
Key & Peele showcases the fearless wit of stars Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele as the duo takes on everything from "Gremlins 2" to systemic racism. With an array of sketches as wide-reaching as they are cringingly accurate, the pair has created a bevy of classic characters, including Wendell, the players of the East/West Bowl and President Obama's Anger Translator.

Oh my gods. SOMEONE ACTUALLY USED "SIRRAH" CORRECTLY!!! That has to be a freakin' first in anything written after 1950. (For those who don't know, "sirrah" was NOT a medieval/Renaissance form of "sir". It wasn't an honorific. it wasn't...exactly...an insult, but it wasn't complimentary either. It was only used to address people you perceived as inferior, and it implied a shit-ton of contempt. K&P are the only folks I've heard use the word correctly, outside of Shakespeare and SCA events).

I've also used the British "two finger" sign to people who thought I was flashing a peace sign. 😁

I don't mean to ruin it for you, but the "period dialects" they include are completely wrong. Just as an example "I just speaketh about Shafte". The "eth" is basically the same as our modern-day "s" ending and would only be used for the third person, as in "he speaks/speaketh". The first person would be unchanged as compared to today: "I speak". Furthermore, the language Shakespeare used was often already old-fashioned for its time and only reserved for stage use, so it's unlikely that the audience members would speak in the same overly formal language as the actors. What Key & Peele are doing here is basically a parody of what most modern English-speaking people THINK Shakespeare's English sounded like, and in that context, I guess it's fine - they are comedians and this is comedy after all.

Its incredible how Key plays articulate family friendly characters in films and shows when not with Peele but he plays such great gangster characters in these skits.

@@lenawagenfuehr53 Not really, firstly Shakespeare was a master of rhetoric and turning memorable phrases, and secondly unlike AAVE no one spoke Shakespearean English except for Shakespearean actors performing his plays. He wrote in verse, primarily iambic pentameter. You'd have to be the most articulate man in the world to speak like that regularly.

Forsooth, I do not favor this Kanye. His pride goes before his good sense, his vanity before his wisdom. He doth walk as one who is not of mere flesh, but a god amidst the chaff, yet he hath the head of a fool, and his Persian mistress hath the airs of one born to great fame, though she can boast of no such talents herself, but hath lain with so many such as to make no difference.
