Have you seen The Ruling Class? What did you think of the film and O'Toole's performance?
There's nothing, not a film, like it. A bit campe and caricatured, but good fun.
It's the best, and "a comedy with tragic relief" describes it perfectly.
The "Varsity Drag" scene is short but extremely enjoyable.
My all-time favourite film!! O'Toole's greatest film performance -- and after Lawrence and Henry II, that's saying something!
One of the best films of the era. Lots of competition too.
It is a very interesting film! I've seen it many times because each sentence is a gem !O'Toole's performance is fantastic.
The cast cements the perfection of why this film is so remarkable. It totally has it ALL.!!!
It's my favourite film! I can certainly see how a lot of people may despise, also not a film that I've ever completely understood but nevertheless one that's hugely enjoyable to me. Side note, I've noticed in this interview how much more nervous O'Toole seems than is most other interviews I've seen him in. Maybe he was young, or maybe he hadn't had a drink or two beforehand as he ordinarily would have.
Agree with you about more nerves. Unusual!
‘A comedy with tragic relief.’
The Ruling Class is probably the weirdest movie that's ever been made.
It’s shite & that’s being kind.
@@Warp75 I didn't say it was good. I said it was weird. It was confusing and discombobulated, like the writer couldn't decide where to go.
Eccentric is the word!! 😂
@@cshubs & the runtime it went on & on & on. I found it pretentious & irritating. On paper it should have been good.
@@Warp75it was Monty Python before its time. If you didn't it then, wouldn't expect you to get it now.
Has anyone pointed out he is on the show as the Hi-Voltage Messiah?
Eteequet 😄👍
There is noone who talks like this now. Maybe he had a point about conformism, even in that pre-internet age.
Confomity is death...nobody understood that like O'Toole.
@jezebeljones659 Well, they seemed original, but an actor only acts, rather than creating.
