Tom Hiddleston explains the rhythm he hears when he reads the words of certain playwrights.

[@Rob-xf4tv]

Tom and his Shakespeare

[@mochiattoart514]

He's just class. Like how to could he remember all that at the top of his head XD

[@cu2524]

The interviewer asked very good questions. He pulled out Tom’s intelligence in the interview flawlessly.

[@bodegibbs779]

Tom is such a bright, articulate young man. He's sweet, decent and absolutely gorgeous from head to toe. Best of all he's true to himself.

[@rlvarady]

I would love to sit this with him and talk Shakespeare over a cup of coffee.

[@malvikabaru]

"A silence is a period of time after which both characters are irreversibly changed." So true.

[@lxcas2709]

He's brillant! There's poetry in what he's saying! I find it just... insane ~ I love this man and his cute little british accent x3

[@ayabaheera]

Tom definitely should conduct a class on Shakespeare and other playwrights. He explains the nuances so clearly- much better than any English Lit teacher I've had!

[@annasonboonta2003]

His voice always got me omg 😭😭😭

[@TheSanoko]

Tom is such a great actor

[@lyn2698]

I love that this interview gives actual chances for Tom to share his passion and knowledge

[@AnastasiaCooper]

best combination possible - listening to one of your favourite actors AND learning about something I didn't know YAY

[@TVXQsam]

i love the way he shares something about Shakespeares and at the same time creating connection to Pinter story. wow, i should've been read a lot about shakespearean stuffs back when i was studying. so i could relate my interests in this matter. 😁

[@taniaearle4457]

I love how he shares his knowledge of with us. Make a great Teacher. 😊❤️

[@brendafuller6186]

Wow. He would make an excellent teacher.

[@positivelypetpartners]

I would love to know what Tom's IQ is...Im sure he's a Genius!

[@sandie321]

I'm presently watching The Hollow Crown, a 3 dvd set in which he plays, in Henry lV part one, the young Prince Hal (Harry) eldest son of King Henry lV and in part two He plays Henry V. Excellent cast. Made me love Shakespeare again.

[@lanangelfurry4563]

his voice is music to my ears 💖😍

[@bluecashewmedia]

I wanna cry his mind is so beautiful

[@carlabernini343]

Silence is worth a thousand words!!

[@janniebenavides3484]

It is really interesting what he said, about the rhythms in the texts of the plays and how this creates a stamp of the authors. That reminded me a bit about of sounds of words and onomatopoeias. (Little language nerd over here🤓)

[@silviahannak3213]

Shakespeare is touching, serious, funny, full of emotions, thrilling.And also not that easy to understand sometimes. (Before i have even watched Kenneth Branagh as Hamlet or Al Pacinos The Merchant of Venice in the Movies. )

[@monique3984]

he is so smart 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@mezzogal]

wow. that's interesting. i wish my literature teachers told me things like this when i was a student.

[@katearcher8514]

Is there the video of the full interview in this manner anywhere? I just saw one with a static picture.

[@candicecheung3684]

Where is he? Missing him 🥺🥺

[@Galemor1]

On Broadway.. Doing the Pinter: Betrayal.

[@fufifufi2578]

Omg his voice!

[@peppa_pig_]

in love with him

[@sonjasandig8751]

I think his understanding of rhythm and pace is why Hiddleston is one of the VERY FEW actors who has accurately duplicated a Southern US accent in the movie I Saw The Light. I’m from Mississippi and I can assure you there are even accent coaches who fail miserably at trying to “sound” Southern!

[@tharu123u]

Such a committed student of literature👌

[@PetiteBelle89]

♥

[@akila527]

I just had to read The Great Gatsby for school (I live in the Netherlands so it’s a hard book for us to read) and I couldn’t really understand why the book is so great, mainly because my level of English is just not on the level of that book. Maybe this has something to with it.

[@pamrogers5979]

With French one of the things (imo) is that the sense/meaning is often between the words

[@Womanwithblackdog]

Tom on Pinter! So interesting. Pinter silences are pregnant. They make each audience member an actor in the play. Sometimes they also make me feel illiterate.

[@monikuntalaroy1093]

I want him to teach me literature

[@newdimension4731]

2:20 the silence is something that cannot be spoken about! thru! when someone replies to me with an idiotic comment, i just stare and keep silence....... it uncontrollably distabilize my opponent

[@weijiapan90]

Pinter's remarks from Working With Pinter: These damn silences and pauses are all to do with what's going on … and if they don't make any sense, then I always say cut them. I think they've been taken much too far these silences and pauses in my plays. I've really been extremely depressed when I've seen productions in which a silence happens because it says silence or a pause happens because it says pause. And it's totally artificial and meaningless. When I myself act in my own plays, which I have occasionally, I've cut half of them, actually.
