Yeah, I've heard it's intense, like trigger-warning intense. If I can make it I will.

Random side-note, the RSC once did a video production of Othello with David "Hercule Poirot" Suchet as Iago. Only meaningful if you've ever seen the old HP mysteries on PBS, but really trippy if you have. ;)

Also, if the intersection of awkward, coming-of-age romance and kung-fu sounds appealing, you will probably like Scott Pilgrim. I'm a big fan of the comic upon which it's based.
