I can greatly appreciate this. At my performing arts high school, we did Shakespeare in one the upper levels of drama. She’s very authentic and natural. I’ve seen various interpretations/performances of this monologue, and this is one of my favorites.

you don't hear it or see it; you feel it. outstanding. a very difficult play. and she does the scene less like a walk-on and more like an emergency room 3 a.m. blood splatter on the walls drive-by car crash. it is your wife. your lover. your heart. wrenched out in need and longing and bitter, bitter loss staggering about in the shadows of storm ravaged hope. i have seen her before but have never seen her before, because now i will always see her thus and i am humbled and awed and driven naked into tears of the past blasted to ruin. she is beautiful in this. one is stricken and staggered; what Elizabethan boy could have ever escaped this scope and horror on the stage. we are lucky that the work has survived to find its home and thrive. this is simply glorious. thankyou.

The hair stood up on the back of my neck from the first "I am not mad." Bravo.

An unforgettable and so moving performance. Far too studied and lengthy to ever make it into a stage production this is nonetheless acting at its finest, as Camille almost literally becomes the bereaved mother, talking to us close face to face in despair and fear. The simple little line "And he is lost" becomes one of the most heart-rending I've heard said in any performance. Wonderful.

Thou art not holy to belie me so; I am not mad: this hair I tear is mine; My name is Constance; I was Geffrey's wife; Young Arthur is my son, and he is lost: I am not mad: I would to heaven I were! For then, 'tis like I should forget myself: O, if I could, what grief should I forget! Preach some philosophy to make me mad, And thou shalt be canonized, cardinal; For being not mad but sensible of grief, My reasonable part produces reason How I may be deliver'd of these woes, And teaches me to kill or hang myself: If I were mad, I should forget my son, Or madly think a babe of clouts were he: I am not mad; too well, too well I feel The different plague of each calamity.

You’re wrong to say such things about me! I’m not out of my mind! This hair I’m tearing is my own. My name is Constance-I was Geoffrey’s wife, and Arthur is my son, but now he’s lost. I’m not insane, but I wish I were! If I were mad, maybe I could forget myself. Oh, if only I could- how much grief I could leave behind! If you could lecture me on some principles that would drive me mad, I’d make you a saint, cardinal. Because right now, I’m not crazy, just painfully aware of my sorrow. My sane mind keeps showing me the reasons for my suffering, and it’s teaching me that the only way out is death- whether by hanging or something else. If I were truly insane, I’d forget about my son, or maybe I’d mistake a bundle of rags for him. But no, I’m not mad. I feel each agony clearly and understand every torment all too well.

Voice in my mind says, King John. Constance. KZbin algorithm isn’t that smart. Ohmmeters-Madam Butterfly is playing in my head-that scene in the wheat (‘wheat’ is an interesting word) field. Julien Sands kisses Helena Bonham Carter on the fly.

I've often wondered how history would've played out if Arthur of Brittany, the true King of England, was not usurped and murdered by Bad King John. But hey at least we got Robin Hood because of it.
@adamlis93216 жыл бұрын
He was only Bad King John because he imposed heavier taxes to recuperate the economy and he fought (and both lost and won) against rebellious barons (who were also vicious antisemites). A victim of literature history like Richard III.
