Modern Shakespeare and a kilt
Last night my wife "made" me sit through the William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet directed by Baz Luhrman. I have seen this film a couple of times before, but my daughter (who has aspirations of going to film/ art school) wanted to see it so we screened it again. Very close to the beginning of the film, there is a scene where the character of Mercutio is introduced (he is in drag, as the group is going to a costume ball at the Montague place) and one of Romeo's cousins, who is part of the character Benvolio's gang, appears wearing a kilt, a black tank tee and a viking helmet. My daughter saw it and piped up " Dad, you need to wear a hat like that!" 
I don't think so.
