Connection: King Lear and "Get Smart"

*Spoiler alert... maybe*
*Note, I don't remember this movie too well, so I won't remember some names.
In the movie "Get Smart," Maxwell Smart is distrusted (and detained) by his superiors because he made their agency look like a bunch of fools. Max had found and hit a building which he thought was a stronghold for nuclear weapons (or something like that.) However, when the agency went back to check the place, there was no sign of nuclear radiation. So they assumed Max had made a stupid mistake, and detained him after a few events. However, Max really was right, and that place really was a stronghold for nuclear weapons (or something like that.) So, the agency replaced Max with another agent, who happens to be a spy/worker for the antagonist party in the movie. This is like how Lear distrusts Cordelia and trusts Regan and Goneril. The spy-agent goes on to almost destroy San Fransisco's piano (or something like that) along with the agency, but Max saves the agency (and the piano... or something like that). This is like how Regan and Goneril tried to kill Lear, but failed (partially due to Cordelia's help, except that Cordelia's (France's) army loses a battle and Cordelia and King Lear get captured anyway). Except in the movie, the agency survives, and in King Lear, Lear dies anyway. So we can see that the themes that Shakespeare uses in his plays are used by modern directors/playwrights/authors, and can be found in many works of literature throughout history. This revelation doesn't pertain to and/or affect me in any specific and/or profound way. The only way this really affects me is that I can use this knowledge to choose a location for our Shakespeare skit project, and I can use this knowledge as a tool to worship Shakespeare.
