Thrice -cursed

Fie you Netflix! I had the perfect plan which meant 1) I wouldn't have to worry about looking all over town to find my Shakespeare films, 2) I would save money as the bother of looking for these movies has meant I've already purchased two Shakespeare movies I had not planned to, and 3) I could work more efficiently. Well I signed up for Netflix on Sunday and even though I only had one more version of Macbeth to watch, I ordered two so if I didn't like one of them I could switch to the other. Yesterday Netflix informed me that one of them wasn't available locally and so I would have to wait until Thursday or Friday to get it. "It's a good thing I ordered two," I thought because it meant I could still watch the second one on Wednesday. I had my whole schedule planned out so that I could go home between classes and work today and watch it during lunch and other errands. Well what did I find when I opened the sleeve? The extremely bloody, violent R-rated Roman Polanski Macbeth instead of the one with Greta Scacchi that I wanted to watch! This throws me completely off schedule Netflix! That's two strikes in three days, not a very good record.
