And I was able to turn in the movie just before the LRC closed!<br /><br />Anyway, I think I would be able to draw more inferences from reading the play and paying attention 100%. But I think maybe, even though he had a public image of being pure and noble, Mark Antony did enjoy his new power and control. I think that's maybe why he was able to say those last lines: he recognized that he himself had faults and "vain ambitions," while Brutus really did just do what he thought was best.<br /><br />I'll get back to you after I read the play though.J.J.

I think you've inferred that something mischievous has been going on behind his smiles. But what was the context? Is there anything besides his smile that makes us think he's got some sort of agenda?Anthony Bastianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03635337307156848415noreply@blogger.com
