All Shakespeare, All the Time

November 2, 2005

In a conversation today about some software testing that was going poorly, I happened to quip, “something wicked this way comes.” Someone on the line immediately responded, “I loved that movie!” I was glad I was on a conference call, because I had no idea what this person was talking about and didn’t have to even nod knowingly. I was thinking about the line from Macbeth, “By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes,” but a little research told me that the reference was to this movie, which a little more research told me is based on this book.
