160. Lots has been written about that. It's a totally plausible theory. Notice Iago's speech about Cassio:

I lay with Cassio lately;
And, being troubled with a raging tooth,
I could not sleep.
There are a kind of men so loose of soul,
That in their sleeps will mutter their affairs:
One of this kind is Cassio:
In sleep I heard him say 'Sweet Desdemona,
Let us be wary, let us hide our loves;'
And then, sir, would he gripe and wring my hand,
Cry 'O sweet creature!' and then kiss me hard,
As if he pluck'd up kisses by the roots
That grew upon my lips: then laid his leg
Over my thigh, and sigh'd, and kiss'd; and then
Cried 'Cursed fate that gave thee to the Moor!'


Pretty gay, right? Also Iago seems jealous and jilted of Othello's relationship with Desdemona, is not very interested in his wife, that scene where Othello and Iago kneel together and vow to be faithful to each other for ever ...

The movie you screencapped definitely used that interpretation, too. Notice Iago engaging in anal sex with his wife, reaching for Rodrigo's crotch, and doing other gay stuff that has slipped my mind. But anyway, it's totally a legitimate theory. I like it. I also think Iago's hot, but I usually like the villains and/or psychopaths (just fictional ones, though). Yes, I have a thing for Darth Vader.

There's a modern version of Othello that you have to see (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0275577/) - it's got Christopher Eccleston in it (the Ninth Doctor).

If you google around about homosexuality, Othello, and Iago you can find a lot of scholarly articles about it.

I'm sorry I'm such a dork, I'm an English major.

I got a bad school report when I was doing my AS levels mainly because of that extract. My friendship with the girl who sat next to me in English class, and who I used to goof off with all the time was cemented by us talking about how much possible gay subtext there was in it. I still maintain that academia is more fun if you can fangirl the literature at the same time, but my high school teacher didn't agree, clearly. :D (Funnily enough we did watch that adaptation in class, and yet still she was oblivious...)
