Hamlet Act2, Scene2 Soliloquy HD

[@crazymaner2003]

This is all one shot. Brilliant staging and camerawork, especially with the heavy 70mm camera.

[@bread_n_butter8614]

masterful indeed, visually stunning movie, must've been mindblowing to watch this in cinema

[@jesse_reznor]

@@bread_n_butter8614 I wish upon wish I had the chance to see this in a movie theater.

[@michaelexman5474]

What a genius and how he spins it round from self questioning to testing his questions on the universe. I LOVE THE BARD

[acting literally intensifies]

[@MrKC23]

Beautifully spoken. Trippingly on the tongue. Trippingly means light and quick, with a sense of ease, fluently.

[@planetarydreams]

So basically he went oh shit what am I doing and completely lost his absolute mind

[@Peachy_Edits]

'But in a fiction, in a dream of passion, Could force his soul so to his own conceit.' This is very beautiful... how wonderful though that the experience itself, from the predicament of the human condition, was able to find it's way to manifest given the limits (expression) of the English Language.

A beautiful and very distinct dialect, very specificly Sir Kenneth, as a true Shakespearian use and wield the language as a sword.

Derek Jacobi’s Hamlet from 1980 (BBC) was genius. This version leaves me shaking my head. Why does Branagh’s delivery always sound like he’s full of himself? And why does he rush so fast through his lines all the time? That ruins every scene. Does he have a bus to catch?

[@shakespearaamina9117]

Totally agree 💯 I believe this is the worst Hamlet ever to be played 😢 So unfortunate indeed!

[@limbsofosiris3187]

Great speech. Great production. But Branagh, alas, cannot act to save his life. Over-the-top, too quick, melodramatic...

[@syourke3]

He does split the ears of the groundlings, doesn’t he? A bit too stagey. The whole point of film is that it’s not necessary to scream and yell and carry on in order to make your point. And especially with a soliloquy, there’s no need to carry on like maniac when you’re talking to yourself. And here, he starts raving at himself and accusing himself of cowardice and then, without a momentary pause, he wonders if the ghost is genuine and decides he needs more evidence of Claudius’ guilt before he can strike him dead. That’s completely illogical and unrealistic, he should pause for at least a few seconds between raving that he’s a coward and expressing doubts about Claudius’ guilt and how to resolve those doubts.

[@maximusminimus8050]

But his Poirot is horrible.

[@jesse_reznor]

Yeah but, that's just like.... Your opinion, man.

[@kubrickenigma7977]

I rather liked his Poirot, more so in Murder on the Nile than was the case in Murder on the Orient Express.

[@nintendonut100]

Yes, but his Wallander is excellent.

[@maximusminimus8050]

I saw some of these replies and I wanted to say, my impression of Poiroit from reading the novel is someone who is old but his portrayal of Poiroit is someone who could move lightning fast and knows how to use a sword and pistol, a rather pathetic interpretation, but of course my first introduction of Poiroit was Peter Ustinov when as a teenager, so that is the Poiroit in my mind for my entire life. I only came to accept David Suchet only for the past several years after watching all of his works and realized what a great actor he is, but this is just a bridge too far.

[@paulnugent9937]

I don’t agree with this portrayal at all, and I doubt Shakespeare would either. There’s no heart; it’s all acting.
