thanks in no small measure to the music, quite possibly the greatest 2:39 on video... Branagh turns what might otherwise be an occasion of fourth-act let down into a true turning point for this greatest of literary characters and makes of what had always seemed to me almost an anti-climactic throwaway into quite possibly the second best soliloquy in the play (after To Be)...i recommend diet, exercise and viewing this twice a day for any case of so-called depression....
Fra Diablo I feel the same! Love this version!
Extraordinary, delivery that can only outclassed by the dialogue itself
Hamlet Act 4 Scene 4
How all occasions do inform against me,
And spur my dull revenge! What is a man,
If his chief good and market of his time
Be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more.
Sure, he that made us with such large discourse,
Looking before and after, gave us not
That capability and god-like reason
To fust in us unused. Now, whether it be
Bestial oblivion, or some craven scruple
Of thinking too precisely on the event,
A thought which, quarter’d, hath but one part wisdom
And ever three parts coward, I do not know
Why yet I live to say ‘This thing’s to do;’
Sith I have cause and will and strength and means
To do’t. Examples gross as earth exhort me:
Witness this army of such mass and charge
Led by a delicate and tender prince,
Whose spirit with divine ambition puff’d
Makes mouths at the invisible event,
Exposing what is mortal and unsure
To all that fortune, death and danger dare,
Even for an egg-shell. Rightly to be great
Is not to stir without great argument,
But greatly to find quarrel in a straw
When honour’s at the stake. How stand I then,
That have a father kill’d, a mother stain’d,
Excitements of my reason and my blood,
And let all sleep? while, to my shame, I see
The imminent death of twenty thousand men,
That, for a fantasy and trick of fame,
Go to their graves like beds, fight for a plot
Whereon the numbers cannot try the cause,
Which is not tomb enough and continent
To hide the slain? O, from this time forth,
My thoughts be bloody, or be nothing worth!
Thx for the text of this soliloquy!
Brilliant!

I love Branagh, but this is by no means one of his better soliloquies. He seems to have slipped into St. Crispin's mode. It's really not appropriate to the text. This should have been a moment of reflection and realization, not rallying the troops.
Intense
The greenscreen is so dated it looks like a bad 90s music video.
He doesn't do anything exciting with it. Maybe it's the director's fault, but in either case he just stands there. Plus his tone is the same the whole way through. It's all very same-y.
Whilst the triumphant tone and the menacing words create a unique juxtaposition, it just doesn't feel right to me.
You don't need the epic tone of the music and landscape shot to strike a cord with the audience. Look at the text. Pick up its subtleties and work with them. You could have an interesting journey instead of it being one note the entire soliloquy. Have him go from being demotivated to motivated, instead of just motivated then more motivated.
Well first, Kenneth Branagh was the director, screenwriter and actor in this scene. In my personal opinion I love this version of my favourite Shakespearean sililoquy, I also feel that he doesn't stay in the same tone throughout the speech, he does change his diction and his volume like in line 116, the "I do not know" he begins to change his tone and volume. That is just my opinion but if you don't like this one you may like his St. Crispians speech from his version of Henry V which he also directed acted and screen wrote! cheers.

Alright, that's odd that an actor would limit themselves like that. I mean what can he physically do in the scene?
I'll have a look at it :)
zipher123 alright tell me how tou like it!
Curtis McDonald
Yeah, and that's fine. I'm just saying it's a bit boring from that perspective.
I tried directing this monologue/speech. Tell me what you think, and be honest. vimeo.com/127547168
