@@seradar5000 Well, many people don't know my most favourite actor Daniel Day-Lewis because he's very protective of his life. But you wouldn't say that the level of fame defines your talent, would you? I bet you haven't heard of Sir John Gielgud and still he is considered one of the greatest thespians of the London stage. So, it's really about being involved in the world of theatre and cinema and less about the celebrity status. We’re talking here about the talent and the craft, at the end of the day.
Have seen Vanya recently and damn, Andrew Scott is so fucking talented. This play, All of Us Strangers, his Hamlet monologue (can be found on YT), everything he touches turns gold. Brilliant human being
Checkov revised. Uncle Vanya is one of the most cherished roles for an actor. He is of the right age to play this part. Checkov play explores the dangers of working too hard, or too little.
I just came back from seeing this, and it was wonderful. This clip is really misleading. He is simply brilliant in this, but they took a clip from Vanya’s entrance, which is by far the most overacted part in a 2-hour tour de force. His portrayals of Helena, and especially of Sonya are wonderful, understated, heartbreaking. I’ve been following him since Sherlock, and he has been great in everything I’ve seen. I also recommend All of Us Strangers. Brilliant.
I agree. His Helena is something to behold, and so touching. And what about his rendition of the Jacques Brel song? Ne Me Quitte Pas (If You Go Away) is one of my favourite songs, and I will always remember this rendition - utterly heartbreaking.
@@DeadBore Sheer genius, and a unique ability to suck people in.....then that hilarious dash to the fridge to cool himself/everyone else down! Remarkable.
@@Belaugh The fuckin FRIDGE- seriously the whole show was so wonderful his talent is absolutely NUTS man. The scene where he switches between like 6 different characters, he got me to remember all their names somehow?? I forget names in normal adaptations, let alone that mindfuck, absolutely terrifying, I feel the need to watch everything he’s ever been in
His HELENA👏🏼 when he first walked on as her I knew INSTANTLY that that was a woman. It was incredible. The physicality, the little mannerisms all so spot on. Same with his Sonya- just so mind blowingly accurate. Already wishing I could see this again!
Love love love everything he does or just listening to him in interviews! Genius applies here. In Sherlock, he was inspired and fascinating. I am glad he is young and we have so much to see from this actor! Can’t wait for this one in theaters!
If you look up National Theatre At Home, you will find it is very easy to subscribe to the NTl streaming service for a reasonable monthly or annual sub, especially when you consider theatre ticket price these days. This makes the entire NT archive available to watch when, and as many times, as you want to watch online.
I subscribe to the National Theatre at Home from Canada, but it's not quite the same, I know. I'm hoping it will eventually end up there so I can watch it again and again and again. Just brilliant!
Will this be coming to National Theatre At Home for streaming. My disabled family member can't get to the cinema or the theatre but is desperate to see this??😢❤
Хм, на мой взгляд выбрали не самый удачный клип для промо. Оставляет с ощущением, что весь спектакль состоит из кривляний неубедительных, и смотреть не возникло желания... Дядя Ваня - одна из любимых пьес у Чехова, он писал о том, что наблюдал своими глазами, живя в деревне. И все эти сложности человеческих отношений, конечно, можно перенести и в современность, ведь они вечны по сути... Но не зацепило :( Хотя Скотта люблю
Which is why it was a sellout, has been brought to cinema as a landmark production and won awards, both for the production and the actor. So look again, try to just go with what you are seeing, then ask why it is being interpreted the way it is.
I guess a lot of people's "great in everything he does" is some other people's "over acting to the degree that it distracts from the material." Am I supposed to be following the story or thinking about whatever mad thing the actor is going to do with their hands and face next? Somebody, please, reign this guy in.
Нет, это только так вам рассказывают по телевизору. Такая же ложь, как и все остальное. А вы верите, как кучка идиотов. И идете убивать и насиловать, потому что вам по телевизору рассказали, что так надо и что вас обижают. Культуру не отменяют, но как же вы всех достали.
🙈 Своё... Ваше... Чехов ВАШ что ли? Лично? Это мировое культурное наследие. И стране Шекспира, Уальда говорить, что у них нет своего- смешно. А оценивать- кривляние это или нет- уж вам с какой стати? Идите в скрепные театры и смотрите скрепные, одобренные госцензурой спектакли. И ни одно из ваших скрепных высоконравственных чувств не будет задето.
@@lilyonkwast Не говорите куда идти мне. и я не скажу куда идти вам! И ,если уж эта жалкая пародия выложена в публичную сеть на всеобщее обозрение, так позвольте мне все таки оценивать .И, причем тут Уальд и Шекспир?! Ахинея какая то!
this looks so bad i am sorry but i was actually excited to watch this… if you want to turn vanya into girls ok good for you, but i think it completely mosses the point of the play. i will just rewatch drive my car instead…
I understand people recognize him as the "hot priest" more often, but my God he is brilliant in anything he does! Extraordinary!
Be sure to see him in the great Andrew Haigh film "All Of Us Strangers"!
@@treesny, a wonderful film, deeply moving.All of the cast were extraordinary and Andrew was superb.I plan to see it again.
Surely most people recognize him as Moriarty.
I really loved his performance in 'Handsome Devil'; it spurred me to watch more of his work.
@@GregoriusTheBrownya, he will always be Moriarty to me
He is just brilliant in everything he does 👏❤️ I saw this at the theatre and will definitely be watching again on NT live🌟
Me too! As soon as they release to NZ
I adore Andrew Scott. He´s a genius. So talented, so humble, so sweet, so adorable and so handsome.
I adore him. What a talent.
Talent?🙃🙂
@@seradar5000Yes, talent. One of the most talented actors of our time and certainly one of the most brilliant West End performers at the moment!

This was AMAZING!!! What a gift of an actor and human.
A friend got us tickets for the NTLive next week super excited, love Andrew
I would love to have seen this. He is completely entrancing.
A lot of cinemas are showing it. Check it out 🙂
@@IndieRockerHippyI live in the USA :(

The fact that Vanya and Andrew are the same age is adoreable

sorry, how is that? @@dist3102
I think it will eventually be there on their streaming, won’t it? I may be wrong but think I heard in an interview promo, but could be wrong.
Absolutely brilliant! My word.
saw this today and it was amazing! wish I could watch it again live
I see this tonight. I can’t wait!
Well, not only is he incredibly handsome but boy can he act I mean he’s just brilliant oh my goodness he has so much charisma🎉
Saw this last night at The Odeon. Fantastic!! Very talented man.
I'm already heartbroken.
His Moriarty is showing a little! He is effing amazing!
i did see this show and i could watch it all over and over again.exellent☺
Andrew Scott's name comes up and I am "yes"
His little "adaptation" joke killed me - poking fun at himself literally doing an adaptation. LOL!
Saw this yesterday and it was mesmerizing🤩 he’s brilliant
Need some more UK screenings of this now that we all love Scott from Ripley
Will this be coming to National Theatre At Home for streaming. My disabled family member can't get to the cinema or the theatre but is desperate to see this??😢❤
Exquisite. Just exquisite.
WISH i had seen it
It’s coming to cinemas! And then hopefully NT at Home.
There are special screenings at your local cinema from 22nd February.Pre book online.
Vanya is in cinemas now. Find your local venue at: vanya.ntlive.com
I would love to see this presentation.
hot hot hot......and 100% pure talent!
Will this be broadcast on RUclips? I can't get to a cinema near me, because there isn't one!!!!
same. I do hope they put it on the NT at Home for streaming.
Perhaps unfair to judge from such a short clip, but the performance seems very ‘mannered’, good as the adaptation line is.
Please tell me we can see this in full somewhere
Where can I see the full performance online?
It’s in cinemas
What is the song that he plays on the piano?🥺
oh honey, as a actor in Turkey, I will never watch this fucking thing but, it must be watch from all Theatre students!!!!!!!!!
Just got back from watching it - incredible!
God - Russian Literature truly GENIOUS! Survives and gets better with age
Not only Russian, there is other good literature too.
Chekhov was half Ukrainian - grew up in a Ukrainian speaking household.
@@zaku2222that’s a lie. He was Russian, living in Russia in Russian empire. There was no Ukraine back then.
He has the same tone as paul mccartney, which is very bizarre.
he played McCartney in 'Lennon Naked' :)
nice shirt
I’m a fan of James Spader to
Очень интересно
Ok. Maybe I’ll now understand Chekhov.

Love his energy since its harder to get it up. A little too foul mouthed for me, though.
he's eating his own shirt.....common
This is essentially a RUSSIAN play?
Yes?
I think Chekhov Uncle Vanya.
in my mind this is what he does when he isn't being a criminal mastermind and causing chaos amd crimes for sherlock to solve 😅
Is this a jim carrey impersonation?
great actor but bit off more than he could chew here or i doubt any actor could
You’re just jealous! Bet your life and career and family are all just amazing?!
Lol
The very definition of self-indulgent over-acting.
Agreed--it's just awful. I love the play; glad I saw this clip so I won't make the mistake of paying for this production.
Please yourself. But such fun..! And nice to see a talented actor REALLY enjoying himself!

I take it that you don't like this performance?
This has to be the most irritating acting I’ve seen in a while. And I include Garfield in Angels of America in this
Сначала подумала, что мне показалось. Нет, не показалось. Вы же собрались русскую культуру отменять? Передумали уже?
