A Midsummer Night's DreamKevin Kline, Michelle Pfeiffer, Rupert Everett, Stanley Tucci
Shakespeare's intertwined love polygons begin to get complicated from the start. Demetrius and Lysander both want Hermia, but she only has eyes for Lysander. Bad news is, Hermia's father wants Demetrius for a son-in-law. On the outside is Helena, whose unreturned love burns hot for Demetrius. Hermia and Lysander plan to flee from the city under cover of darkness but are pursued by an enraged Demetrius, who is himself pursued by an enraptured Helena. In the forest, unknown to the mortals, Oberon and Titania, King and Queen of the faeries, are having a spat over a servant boy. The plot twists up when Oberon's head mischief-maker, Puck, runs loose with a flower that causes people to fall in love with the first thing they see upon waking. Throw in a group of laborers preparing a play for the Duke's wedding, one of whom is given a donkey's head and Titania for a lover by Puck, and the complications become fantastically funny.
At 1:35:09, Endrius Colombaioni is blowing fire while
Giancarlo Colombaioni and Angelo Bonello juggle 3 torches each as
they prepare to pass torches.
But when 2 torches are dropped, they are quickly picked up and they
restart, and 8 seconds later, we see them successfully passing the
torches for 5 seconds.
