I'm yet to witness such natural acting when it comes to performing Shakespeare. This is absolutely brilliant!

[@topquark22]

What a tempting teaser. I sought the full play, and by God, I will find it.

[@ilya8132]

This was perfect. PERFECT! They did so well will breathing, voice, facial expression, body movements; everything. The background was nice as well. It made it feel more "homey."

[@humansarebeautiful]

I love this scene so so much

[@brenstona3497]

I saw this play!!!!! I saw this cast when I studied abroad in Oxford and we went to visit Stratford Upon-Avon! Awesome Performance!

[@dyonomitereacher8140]

This is one of my favorite Shakespeare plays , I would love to see it live.

[@teodorajelaca5963]

dyonomite reacher i really like this play as well.

[@MrMrMrprofessor]

God, I love All's Well. It's certainly not one of Shakespeare's most popular works by a LONG shot, but I just love this quirky play.

[@jellydarling1008]

That acting was heart stopping

[@lauriehill_jpg]

[@orianamejer346]

If I was in Helena's place in IRL, I too, would cave to this interrogation.

[@mauriciokrebs2913]

damn, this sounds awfully good

[@imy6045]

I want to watch the full play. I Can't find it on KZbin. Can any one help.

[@iloveshakespeare8377]

That's an uncomfortable conversation to have with the woman who raised you.

[@larryr.2225]

And the countess isn't making it any easier!

[@Anicius_]

Modesty is overrated

[@Lara-bj4gp]

where can I watch the whole thing? thank you:)

[@learnwithanoushka]

just watch the movie

[@beckyhardy4875]

Does anyone know what monologue this is? Is is one of the countess'?

[@citizen1163]

How do actors remember those lines? I've heard that it's to do with rhythm but my brain's not wired that way unfortunately.

[@cbrcm7]

Where can I watch the full length production?

[@Vpopov81]

ive never seen this play is it one of the good ones and i know thats a dumb thing to say considering its shakespeare so be easy on me for that

[@riverbedflower7498]

+Victor Popov Yes, it's one of the good ones. And it's not so very dumb. I myself, don't like the first 2 parts of Henry VI. I have to say those are the only ones I don't like. I think they're rather boring, but then they were the first that he wrote as far as we know, so even The Bard had room for improvement, I suppose. All's Well That Ends Well is really good, one of the most forward in challenging gender roles in the 16th century, since the girl is the one who goes on a journey to pursue the guy and so on

[@Vpopov81]

+RiverBed Flower Thanks thats an excellent review

[@riverbedflower7498]

[@MattieMacaya]

I feel like Helenas part should be a rap. Like where is rap battle shakesphere? Id like to know

[@stylembonkers1094]

It is wrong to get a get a 35-year old woman to play a teenage girl.

[@Anicius_]

Perhaps they couldn't find a good young actor

[@SuperRONDALE]

@@Anicius_ They probably didn't bother looking that hard

[@narabdela]

You don't get out to the theatre much, do you Stylem?

[@stylembonkers1094]

@@narabdela I do. Plenty of hags playing young girls I see. Dreadful. They should get teenage girls to play teenage girls. Also stupid is the practice of getting menopausal women to play feudal warlords.

[@stylembonkers1094]

@Chosen Remix They were played by boys, not "trannies".

[@princessdianaox]

This is my least favorite Shakespeare play... I’m sure there’s others but the whole story line is so weird.... and creepy

[@fredemny3304]

That's what makes it fascinating. It's my favourite.

[@narabdela]

@@fredemny3304 Precisely! It's Shakespear's most interesting play. In fact, the supposedly 'difficult' plays are my favourites.
