Nell seems to be the only sane character. She is the only one with a clear perception of the fact that happiness and purpose has evaporated from all their lives. She is the only one who retains a coherent memory of times past. She consequently is the only one who voluntarily lets go of life, realising that life has been lived and should now come to an end. She tries to share this with Nagg, but he is unable to grasp the significance of it. The other characters seem to oscillate between the realisation that everything is pointless and that death is appropriate, and in the next moment they distract themselves by meaningless conversation and games. In addition they are afflicted with amnesia and confusion about what has happened, and if life ever had any value. Absolutely brilliant play, one of my favourites.

It really hits different when you're affected by mental illness. I read this for theater class and I was struck by how I could find myself in the madness. Now I know it's the whole of humanity instead of just insanity. Not to discredit the other two, but Nagg and Nell's actors just add more tenderness and vulnerability to the characters. Clov's sad expression at the end really adds to it. He's free but he's seeing the only person in his life withering away.

​@@MrRezillo Although Hamm and Clov are arguing with each other throughout the entire play, I think the real antagonist is silence. The world outside comprises a leaden sea, grey sky, and sand. There are no other people. Therefore, if they were to stop talking to each other they would find themselves drowning in silence. That the pattern of their dialogue is so desultory, the way they quit one subject abruptly and jump to another that seems totally unrelated to the last, is to me evidence that they are afraid of the silence. In other words, it better to argue than to sit there with your own thoughts. Thus I see the pauses as those moments where death pokes its head in, reminding Hamm and Clov that emptiness is all around them, and will be there to engulf them the moment they get tired of talking or decide to part ways. edit: grammar
@MrRezillo
@MrRezillo 3 жыл бұрын
@@jameslatin2939 Thanks a very astute analysis. I wonder why Beckett, via his characters feared silence so much? I've done a fair amount of meditation and am of the opinion that silence is not a bad thing to be feared. Quite the contrary, actually. Anyway, Clov does leave in the end. What do you make of his seeing a "small boy" out the window? He mentions it an an off-hand matter, not: "Look, there's another human being!" but "there's a robin flying by." Apparently Beckett had some "issues", as a shrink would put it, with his parents, viz Nell and Nagg. Anyway, this play has always fascinated me. I did see it live once.

Even the Uni library resources failed to come up with a copy. Bless you, KZbinr, for hosting this version.

I agree, a superb TV cinematic version of a stage production. Many people find Samuel Beckett's works depressing. Amongst the deep dark bits there's some brilliant wit and humour, in this I think he's taking the piss out of himself at times. I'd only read this script, didn't see it when it was broadcast.

But remember what Bon Scott said, "Hell ain't such a bad place to be". Ooops, sorry, the late Bon Scott was talking about his relationship to a certain woman from what I can tell from those pesky AC/DC lyrics. I'm in hell and it's not too bad here and I made it myself, though I did have some help from life itself. Peace.

I'm not an expert on this but I have developed an interpretation of it. The point is, I believe, that we try to enjoy whatever little pleasures we can find in this life of suffering. However, there is nothing more to life than these little pleasures. No ultimate pleasure/meaning to aim at. And this is the main point of the play: these little pleasures are not enough to warrant the existence of life. They cannot compensate for the suffering in life and so life is inherently absurd, pointless. The actions that the characters aim at appear to bring some level of pleasure to the characters. However, it can be seen that ultimately their plight remains unchanged. These little pleasures are nothing but painkillers in the midst of their inevitable suffering and extinction.

@@SamuelBlack84 Yes I'd agree that the notion of a tyrant god judging us is absurd and partly created by a need of some to control others for their own ends. Although I am quite open to the idea of an afterlife. An openness based on reason and experience rather than tradition or "blind faith". The research into NDEs over the last 50 years is one of the reasons I lean more toward the existence of some kind of continued conscious existence. The work of Dr Bruce Greyson is a good place to start. Also I think living wisely does lead to a happier life than living foolishly. But a preoccupation with trying to be righteous won't work either. But I could be wrong and I don't care. Nothing I can do about it. It's a mystery to me.

Inside the skull collective unconsciousness speaks to consciousness it’s the chatter we can’t stop inside our head sometimes goes hundred miles per hour driving us crazy. The past is in the trash we are unable to leave it completely so we can live in the present the two windows are the eyes one see the water the other the earth. Fire the third force is purposely missing. Inside of everyone skull is hell It is a terrifying inside of a human mind as it aproveches death. It is missing because is being extinguished slowly as death approaches. Silence when we are born silence when we die alone.

As entertaining as absurdist drama is, I'm not sure they called it correctly. From the ominous events unfolding since 2020, it's looking much more painful and sinister--not just repetitive and dull. Being decimated by design is much worse than flickering off into oblivion. Who would've thunk it? 😉
