Hamlet by Andrew Scott
Ophelia by Jessica Brown Findlay
Claudius by Angus Wright
Gertrude by Juliet Stevenson
Director Robert Icke and Rhodri Huw
Producer John Wyver
Production Company Illuminations and Almeida Theatre
Claudius: oh, and call me dad!
Hamlet: *looks at the camera like he's on The Office*
😹
the whole play is just the office but emo
bit of a stretch of your imagination methinks
Woah. His Uncle just being like "You're grieving? You really should be over that by now." Poor Hamlet!!
XD, watch the whole play youd like the twist
Claudius has always been, to me, a conniving bastard whose need to end Hamlet's grief is selfish and stupid.
I don't think it's about his grief in an interior sense. Claudius wants Hamlet to show public approbation of his kingship. It's about the political role C wants H to play.
Forgot to add. It was a clever directorial touch to have Hamlet seated and surrounded by his disapproving elders & superiors: Hamlet as a naughty boy. Very clever indeed. And conveyed with such subtle finesse by Scott.
he recites it in a way that seems so natural and casual
really? i thought the opposite. Looks forced and rigid to me.
@Wayne Wallace the genius of shakespere's work is that it wasn't meant to be done in any specific way. It's open to interpretation (for the actors)
@Wayne Wallace I get you, my point is that the performance doesn't also have to be twisted and complex, you can play it relaxed..I didn't think he did
@Wayne Wallace Even before he speaks he's nervously picking his nails. He's constantly fiddling and just generally looks rigid to me. Thats the basis of what i'm saying
Yes. Good point indeed. Without losing much of the cadence and music of the words. And such an elegant, beautiful face. Not keen on time-shifting productions in modern dress, however. Probably economical.
Hamlet is a goth boi
"It's not a phase mom! This is who I am!"
Anelisa Huff dude his father died two months ago ofc he’s goth
andrew delivers shakespearean script with modern english inflection and tone and it is BEAUTIFUL
"Think of Us as a father." says the guy who killed his father.
and that is why hamlet is so good.
...as OF a father
How he shoots a quick glance at Claudius when he says "these are all actions that a man might play"...beautiful
I thought was very well done. Want to watch the entire thing!
@@dokidoki719 Me too! This is the version of Hamlet which is closest to my perception of it. I hadn't liked Andrew Scott much before I saw soliloquy and this. It's perfect, I want the whole thing!
I came to the comments just to talk about that look. Shade…
Andrew speaks like a normal person which brings the character of Hamlet closer to us. In sharp contrast his co stars however speak with that voice that many actors use when playing Shakespeare. Their characters seem distant and unapproachable. Therefore Andrews acting alone seems to be on a different level. Really fascinating.
This is how I felt watching the Josh O’Conner/Jessie Buckley version of Romeo and Juliet. Same words but performed in a way that feels very modern. I really enjoyed it.
Counterpoint: the other characters in the scene are supposed to be distant, unapproachable and stoic, that's part of the conflict between them and Hamlet. They want him to be more like them.
“Hey stop being so bummed out, don’t you know it’s normal for people to die? Why do you seem to care so much?” “I don’t just seem sad, I literally AM so sad. I’m so sad, that all these things people normally do to grieve feel pretentious and performative because they cannot encompass the true depth of my grief.”
Lmao the face andrew pulls after man says "Think of us as a father"
thats a lot of words to simply say "it'll be ok hamlet"
We don't want the play to be a half hour long, with everyone cutting straight to the chase.
In other words:
"People die! THAT'S WHAT THEY DO."
~ James Moriarty
they're honestly just saying "suck it up and be a man why are you so cripplingly gay hamlet"
That's Wild Bill Shakespeare
ALL OF THESE ACTORS FREAKING AMAZING
Damn im not a native english speaker i barely unerstand a word that they say but I’m here for Andrew Scott and I’m staying for Andrew Scott
Haha don't worry. There are far too many native English speakers out there who have no idea what they're saying either.
@@alannacarlson6715definitely, very difficult. english has evolved a lot since then, pretty soon this will sound like an entirely unique langue from ours.
Hamlet's like, "Okay, Boomer"
I laughed
@@stelianajasmine8960 you mean, you expelled air through your nose?
I love how at the start he plays with the bracelet. He's doing a nervous tic for Hamlet
i think also because later in this version polonius gives laertes a watch, and they're meant to be an opposite to hamlet, so the watch might be from his father :O
Someone uploaded a bootleg of the full play of this version a while back, and it’s implied that it’s Hamlet Sr’s watch that Young Hamlet keeps fiddling with
Even the supporting characters in the background were cringing at Claudius' speech. They were like, "Dude, please stop."
"These indeed seem, for they are actions that a man might play." - that glance at Claudius when he says that is so subtle and powerful. 👏
I LOVE, love may be an understatement, how this masterpiece sounds like a modern “dinner table conversation” if you will
Wow you know he must have practiced these lines for hours and hours and hours to know the lines well enough to make them feel so natural and easy
You would be surprised how easily Shakespeare comes.
That "father" guy has perfect diction. He could narrate documentaries or record audio books.
The way he nervously fidgets with his bracelet hit me hard
not just a bracelet - it's implied to be his father's watch
I read that as "had me hard" hahahha
I will never get over this performance EVER
At first, I thought he was phoning it in. But then I realized that hamlet's whole demeanor is supposed to be disinterested in what everyone has to say and sick of the bullshit thats happening to his family.
Andrew Scott is a great Hamlet; he does him in such a natural way
Andrew stands out starkly from everyone else because he is constantly moving, both in face and body. The other people are stiff and formal.
1:03-1:06
That look at Claudius really got me.
this part of the play always pissed me off bc i was like his DAD JUST DIED HES ALLOWED TO BE SAD
It's supposed to. Much like how it angered Hamlet. Because of what Hamlet discovers later on. He'd come back to Denmark to mourn, already suspicious of the circumstances. Claudius needs Hamlet on his side. Even though he stole the election for King (Denmark had an elected monarchy, where the lords picked the next King), he still needed the legitimacy of having Hamlet on his side. Even with an elected monarchy, there would have still been nobles who would have agitated for Hamlet to succeed over Claudius. And probably still are. If Claudius can get Hamlet to his side, then it would leave the dissenters to Claudius' succession without cause. If Claudius can't get Hamlet to his side, then it leaves the question of succession still open. While it's an elected monarchy, it was still unusual to not choose the designated heir of the previous monarch. It would have bred discontent. Gertrude knows this. Claudius knows this. Everyone in court, who is in Claudius' camp, knows this. And if they can't get Hamlet on their side, then they need to remove him from the country until Claudius can further entrench his claim and sire an heir to rival Hamlet.
@@GenOberst basically this. the only thing I would add is that Hamlet was perhaps not just angry at that point but straight up depressed. understandable given that his father just died. and then he's got folks pretty much telling him that 'boys don't cry' and he did the required 3 days blah blah so move on (if you've seen Downton Abbey consider the whole thing with Mary regarding Patrick's funeral. but the court is Mary). Hamlet's words are as much trying to explain his depression to everyone as everything else. but they don't get it and we move on to him basically saying "well perhaps i should just die"
@@ctfangirl i think they do get it, they're just moved by guilt to pressure him to "get over it". both the mother and the uncle could "just move on" if -everyone- did kind of thing.
“Look at little Hamlet Junior! Gonna cry?”
A good modern performance that's not gimmicky
Wow, what a treat to see and hear such actors -- all expert at putting across text that's normally difficult to follow.
He sounds like he’s making shit up as he goes, amazing
Andrew Scott:👁👁
His “mom”: UNHOOD THY LIDS
Hamlet: I’m sad, my dad died
Claudius: ( killed him) well I lost my dad so get over it, man up
Gertrude: just be happy Hamlet, I love you that’s why I married your fathers brother
Excellent interpretations. Very natural reading makes the actions seem current.
I love her voice
Yes I found it very soothing myself.
Hamlet's look in the end: "Oh, you are so gonna die."
Best version ever
Claudius really said "have you tried not being upset?"
hamlet is so emo and i love it
by any chance maybe you have him doing the soliloquy which follows this scene "Oh that 'tis too too sullied flesh..."? You'd save my life if you did!!
Why did RUclips recommend this and why am am I obsessed now?
...and think of us as of a father.
Hamlet: 😐
Very well done. Makes the language understandable.
This Hamlet is SO electrifying
his performance is actually otherworldly
LMFAO that look at the end:
Wow! “Think of us as other father”. That’s a good one man that’s a good one. I’ll keep that in mind.

@@olger05 Thank you so much!! 🤗
Andrew Scott is a force of nature obviously, but Christ Angus Wright Claudius! He's so talented and casually infuriating in the role. Were I Hamlet I think the play would have ended in his premature murder. I haven't seen a Claudius get under my skin like that in quite some time.
i want to hug Andrew and say it will be okay.
'But I have that within which passes show, These but the trappings and the suits of woe'
Pardon my lateness to the party, but I am compelled by the quality of both script and delivery to say that The Bard (or whoever he stole from) still reigns supreme!
TLDR:
Mom: Why are you always depressed?
Hamlet: I'm emo.
The Irish hamlet. Good on him to keep the accent.
I love Andrew so much ❤️
Hey it’s Benedict! Hey Benedict
where can i watch this whole production? gosh this is SO good
where can I watch the full version of this??
0:20 Ah, yes the old adage:
"People die when they are killed"
The prince is quite hot.
That look in the end 😣
I love Andrew’s smirk when Claudius says ‘unmanly grief’. It was almost a personal smirk, not that of Hamlet only, but that of a gay man being dejected for his nature.
@Vincent Bate They usually are bullied for being feminine and "unmanly" so it makes sense, actors use facets of their personality to play their characters. I found it an interesting little analysis, why the attitude?
Vincent Bate I realize it sounds crazy, it just flashed on me when I saw it first. Of course it is just an interpretation, not the literal meaning of Shakespeare’s words.
"Call me father"
Hamlet: 👁️👄👁️
“Quit your bellyaching, p**sy. I’m your daddy now.” - Claudius.
Imagine learning all those lines 👀
I recognise the actor playing Claudius from 'Peep Show'.
E F F O R T L E S S ✨ 👌 ✨
Incredible interpretation. How un-theatrically Andrew delivers his lines! It was annoying at first but it's actually brilliant. Great work from Mom + Uncle as well
Anyone knows where i could find the whole play?
I don't understand half of it but sounds beautiful
Is there anyway to find the whole thing?! I am freaking out!!!
😍💀🗡♥️
This is uniquely clumsy and read as would Paris Hilton if her mother asked her to do some housekeeping
literally makes me wonder how/if human conversational behavior modernizes/changes over long periods of time
Hot priest!
Where can I find his entire performance? These clips I've seen are some of my favorite
there are illegal ways to find it but hopefully it will end up being added to the National Theatre Live streamings that are happening on their channel. they just added two new titles to the list so it seems they are still trying to sort out deals to show stuff at least until the UK theatres are allowed to reopen
Torrents online
Why do I feel it’s James Moriarty just Fucking around
if Ant and Dec had a child together it would look like him.
I know biology and I know it’s not possible so don’t even-
I have to say this, as a Thyroid Cancer Survivor, the make actor who is sitting in this scene looks to have thyroid modules and I encouraged him to get his thyroid Ultrasound measured and checked.
Where can I watch this, please I can't find it anywhere
Does anyone have the full show?
know'st'its
The remarkable lie of Gertrude is that she tries to cover up her infidelity and betrayal with “common” sense.
Everyone who is guilty of betrayal is jumping on Hamlet for his lament of losing his father in a betrayal, and trying to cover up their adultery by blaming Hamlet for his own math not adding up.
God I love this play.
is that Benedict Bridgerton in background?
Yes... and I'm trying to figure out who he's suppose to be. 🤔
@@annaoffive laertes
Isn't that Luke Thompson who played Benedict Bridgerton standing in the back?
Benedict!
1:06 savage lol
where we can see full of performance
Is there somewhere I can watch the whole show?
luke thompson aka benedict bridgerton 💌💌
Where can I watch this😦
In fact where can I watch plays in general.....
I want to know that too, please if you found it or still searching let me know I beg
Am I supposed to be cracking up from my chair, or shall I be taking this in serious manner
cnnrmcllstrnovowels it’s meant to be witty and wry, you’re good to laugh!
0:35 WHO IS THE GUY IN THE BACKGROUND?!?! I know him from somewhere and I don't know where it's killing me!!!
It's Luke Thompson, he plays Benedict in Bridgerton
I know what Hamlet feels. Its like when you are the only one able to not vomit when cleaning cat shit. And your family was the one who brought in the cat while you hated the idea of having pets because of the clean up issues..
I believe that's exactly the analogy that Henry Irving used when discussing his 1893 performance as Hamlet in an interview with The Times.
I am a non-native English speaker and I have no idea what they are talking about. Someone please explain
Hi Sumukh... Hamlet's father has been dead some months and his mother (Gertrude) has married his father's brother, Claudius (they are the two older people in the scene). They are trying to persuade him that it's time for him to stop his mourning and get on with the job of being Prince. Gertrude tells him that death is a natural part of life and 'all that lives must die'. He replies that what he feels is much deeper than the outward show of grief - that even if he stopped wearing black or crying or sighing, it would make no difference. Claudius says that this is unmanly. That most men must lose a father. And he asks Hamlet to think of him as a father, instead.
What Claudius and Gertrude don't know is that Hamlet has met with the ghost of his father. His father's ghost has told him that Claudius was the one who murdered him, and has told Hamlet that he must swear revenge...
Hope this helps.
@@He1sbelles thank you so much!!
helped a lot
Sumukh Dev Google Hamlet lmao are u serious?
@@SoWhosGae stfu
Moriarty...
valar dohaeris.
he doesn’t seem think that hamlet engages in irony. “Sun,” “common” etc. Hamlet is impotently throwing barbs. Also, Claudius isn’t getting that he’s speaking publicly, at court. It’s theater and statecraft. Everyone’s just scratching and twitching like they’re in the bathroom. Affectation of naturalism.
Isn't that Anthony Bridgerton with a haircut and a shirt and pants on off to the right?
C: hey I’m your dad now so you can call me you know....dad
Ham: couple wet wipes case a bum try to touch me EW! (Ew ew ew ew)
I’m afraid he gives me anxiety.
