Terrible when your Blorbo is not mainstream, but rather the secondary antagonist of one of the lesser-known Shakespeare plays, and he’s only really your Blorbo because you played him once.

Cymbeline (2014)
Philario as played by James Ransone
Iachimo as played by Ethan Hawke
I know this movie has been made into a gif before. But I made this for a friend and to just highlight a point.
All the little fussing, and the glances- judging, pouting when Iachimo plans to seduce Imogen.
Whatever that one thing was.
The devastation Iachimo shows after Philario is killed.
They were as good as married and it's very cute to watch.
Where do I find the wild Cymbeline fans?
Can we talk about what an epic multifaceted heroine Innogen/Imogen is?
Can we talk about Posthumus, masculinity, the agony of redemption, and the fact that finally someone in Shakespeare realizes OUT LOUD that a woman's life is worth more than just her chastity?
Do we think Iachimo has ever had half the seductive power he thinks he has?
Does anyone else get emotional about Belarius or is that just me?
How about a grieving king who takes on a horribly inadequate substitute for his lost children and looks right past that substitute's obvious faults, thereby jeopardizing his relationship with his only remaining child?
Doesn't Pisanio deserve so much better?
I want to talk. Hit me up if you have Thoughts.
Michael C. Hall as Posthumus and Liev Schreiber as Iachimo in the Shakespeare in the Park production of Cymbeline directed by Andrei Serban, 1998.
Original review.
But kiss; one kiss! Rubies unparagon'd,
How dearly they do't!
