Well, I knew I was among friends :)
One of my cousins, with a big bad B.S. in English, mentioned having read Beowulf in college; sensing an opportunity, I asked some questions and deduced he was unaware of The Thirteenth Warrior. So I rented it and brought it over. "You might like this," quoth I. Half an hour or so into the thing he almost stood up and shouted "It's Beowulf!"
Fun!

My son's middle school English teacher told him she had never read Tolkien.
I said "then she's not a real English teacher."
He told her...(and she still passed him).
