If you think that's bad, you should see the Lawrence Olivier version.... Never has one man worn so much boot polish on his face and done so much wide-eyed emoting in the name of art. It's not as good as his Henry V, mind you, which has some of the worst men in tights footage of all time. I didn't know where to look.
I think my low point in uni was when I ran into my best mate when I was on the way to the library to do some last minute research on my dissertation - I asked him how his was going and he said 'Fine - just handed it in, actually - I'm off to Spain for two weeks'. I hadn't even started mine.
The worst thing about the 8 books a week period was that, at the time, I was living with a bunch of slacker media students - they'd all come home, whinging about how much work they had to do, when all they really had to do was watch 2 videos and write 500 words on the mis-en-scene, whilst I was reading Proust with one hand and cooking dinner with the other.
