"That's OK. Shakespeare professors are supposed to cry a lot."
--a parent from my kids' school who saw me weeping at Dolphin Tale
If the above is true, I'm clearly cut out for my profession. I mean, I cried during The Smurfs. But the troubled blue people were nothing compared to Winter, the troubled dolphin. Did you know that Winter, with her prosthetic tail and can-do spirit, became an inspirational figure for human paraplegics? Well, I didn't. So, when that lady drove up in the mini-van with her adorable daughter who wanted to see Winter SOOO badly . . .
Actually, I'll just stop there. Because maybe the other professors in my hallway don't share the sentiment that Shakespeare professors are supposed to cry a lot. Let's just say that the scene above, like many others in the movie, resulted in a very damp pair of 3-D glasses.
