National Theatre Live: Othello

It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock the meat it feeds on.

The Moorish general Othello is manipulated into thinking that his new wife Desdemona has been carrying on an affair with his lieutenant Michael Cassio when in reality it is all part of the scheme of a bitter ensign named Iago.
