We know what you're thinking: This week's movie is just called O?! Yep! It is! O is one of two modern-day adaptations of Shakespeare's Othello that were released in 2001. The main character, Odin (Mekhi Phifer), is a high school basketball player who slowly gets manipulated by a jealous guy on his team (Josh Hartnett). Martin Sheen is also in it and he yells a lot. Join us as we try and find content in this very average movie, like how it loves bringing up topics and themes from the play but only using them for shock value, or how one of the characters quotes William Shakespeare!
