- Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) was an english statesman and leader. He led the puritans as general to victory in the civil war against King Charles I and gave all authority to the parliament. But in 1653 he took the power himself and ruled as lord protector over England, Scotland and Ireland. Under his reign England flourished and its rise to world power began. Although his reign lasted only for five years - until his death in 1658 - it has changed England forever.
Oliver Cromwell - The Puritan Caesar
I know this is just a film but damn. The chills as Cromwell said those words. Thinking that this is what they are like today. No longer do they care about the nation. Just thier wee corner of it.
I wish someone would make that speech in the US Congress.
NO SHIT SHERLOCH. LOCK UP PELOSI FOR TREASON!!!!
Amen, this speech is long overdue for Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Waters, etc etc etc
@Patrick Beaudry what I’m about to say you wont the agree with... of them all I say Trump is the least corrupt. He has only been in politics 4 years he doesn’t have the connections for underhand dealings. He hasn’t been in power for decades and decades. Half of the nation and 90% of the media was agaisnt him. But I think he felt he could do some good. That he SAW all the corruption in the Government and felt an outsider could purge that infection from the seats of power. It’s way the Left the most corrupt side of our nation dispise him so
We wish someone would make that speech in the UK Parliament 😂
Exactly I'd rather it be done by a King Charles like figure... But yes Congress needs to hear these words.
Oliver Cromwell is a more complex person then most people know just by glancing. First he tried to keep Charles I on the throne after they won the civil war as Oliver believed England needed a king. Cromwell on two occasions when his own side called for the kings head , actually stopped them and tried to make the King reconsider to create a more constrained monarchy (more constitutional). Charles I on the other hand believed he had the right to rule anyway he wanted to which would have been okay, except he angered a lot of people. Charles I removed popular social reforms his father created, Married a Catholic who was French and created a tax without parliament consent. Again Charles I ruled completely differently then what his father did, who happened to show more constraint in comparison with parliament.
This is not to say Oliver was a nice guy by any means, as when he took power he was too weak to contain the factions in his own government. Leading Cromwell to avoided faction tensions by giving into their demands. This lead to the ban on drinking, and brothels to please members of his puritans brothers when he had "over looked it " . As well as a war in Ireland when both the country and people where weary of bloodshed. At the start it seemed everything he did within his own government was to try and avoid one faction or another starting a coup. One thing Oliver was right about, England needed a King or at least someone strong enough to hold powers in check. Oliver was far from the man to do although he clearly tried.

I need to watch this movie. Been watching the clips all day. Strange how a lot of comments are coming from recent times
Judge: "And that is the sentence of the whole court"Charles: "You can't win. If you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"
TheMarshmelloKing he still dead lol
TheMarshmelloKing ah i see what you did there lol
After Cromwell said "Stewart is here, I must face him alone" after telling an MP "I find your lack of faith disturbing" lol oh yes
Once upon a time
In an English civil war far far away lol
Cromwell refused to be crowned King. He had created the Republic.
..but now I am the master
I wish an MP would read part of his speech to the reprobates we have in parliament today.
No MP would do that. Its an easy life showing up to the house and wasting time.
WTF did you spoil the last segment with that ridiculous music
That was bad enough, without fucking the levels so bad that it is difficult to hear Harris' delivery.
Yep that was my only gripe
Why did you spoil such a fine clip with your petty complaint?
@@zenodotusofathens2122 It wasn't me that spoiled the clip
As I recall,when Charles II returned as King,most of the regicides,still alive, that took part in the trial,were tried themselves and put to death.Cromwell and several others that had died,were dug up, their bodies hung,and then drawn and quartered.
True , Cromwells head is now buried seperatly .
When someone is preaching to an empty room, that's when you know they've gone mad.
This is 2019 no joke
"Dictatorship!! Dictator!" shouted in anger the members of the Dictatorship Club of Dictators.
17. 11 2018 l do believe he has been talking about parliament in the last three days?
Lee M Day and to this day my good friend , today being the proposed and betrayed Brexit Day - the 29th of March 2019 . 🧐🧐🧐🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😡😡😡
350 years later and they are still at it
My God nothing much has changed.All we need today is a true leader.
Tommy Robinson shows leadership and has his brave heart in the right place but is fighting many foes.
An immovable Parliament is what we have now, thanks to a treacherous Parliament.
Err.. I thought the MPs were elected? Or has the Daily Mail made you forget that you thick as sh1t gammon.
True, they are elected on promises and to serve the people. You do know what treacherous means don't you?. Judging by your reply your knowledge of the English language seems limited to using insults to reply to someone who does not share your views, something that Remainers are quick to accuse others of.
all is probably planned out before WW1 where they remove most of Kings and Queens to make ways for somebody to get more profits
Perfect description of today's (27th September 2019) parliament:-) Oliver, we need you services again:-)
ianrkav can’t do all the Irishmen are on the border defending the BACKSTOP 😂
the queen is still alive and have the authority you know
I mean, its not though is it.
@@ThomasSmithThomas It's not too far removed though.
It's 2019 and looking back at that nothing's bloody changed as it still can't run a brothel or anything else for that matter useless must end
Soon
They couldn’t even run a bath 🛀
Glen Villa and Cromwell was played by an Irishman ☘️😂
I expect bj believe s he is oc and will glad go to prison in mock martyrdom to the sad British exitors of eu guess there will be awar in Several years and the UK union beoken
Broken that iz
Cromwell draining the Swamp!
71superbee3 cromwell was a Jewish puppet
Seraфim Голубев you mate should go back to where you belong, the 30s and 40s to be exact.
He was preaching √against√ Cromwell, dumbass
Actually it was King Charles the first that was trying to drain the swamp. Cromwell empowered the swamp and then had to destroy it.... Because he realized he created a monster.
@J OneLife the church is gaining power in Russia.
Music to loud for the final speech. Redo
Deja -Vu... Fast forward to the current and despicable antics of Parliament in 2019 !!
Cromwell realizing, maybe he should have kept king charles alive
Me in 2020 casually observing the current state of popular sovereignty thinking, maybe he should have kept king charles alive.
Screw that, let's go full blown military dictatorship.
@@NautilusGoose Hail, Caesar!
He wanted to, but king charles decided to work with the scots, and that is considered treason.
Looking at the divisionwthin groups wthin races, whin nations that need unity, and all th divisions today among them, and especially the UK, this scene can move you to tears ! How frail our human nature ,regardless of how high the poltical status acheieved ! May Gd have mercy on us all!
Ron Mosely we need civilization under rule of law. One objective sacred law above all else.
The real traitors were in Parliament. :-(
ikr
Just as they are today,The Enemy Within...
Both this and part 1 were beautiful videos.
He wasn’t having to deal with Brexit either, parliament was like that without it!!!⚔️🏹
Damn, the modern parliament followed the same path as their ancestors. Time to #PurgeParliament and return it back to the common man.
I love this movie! I'm surprised the narrator at the end doesn't say that Cromwell established a military dictatorship after he dissolved Parliament and tried to enforce Puritanism on all of Britain...
Great movie none the less!
I was trying to figure out what this performance was reminding me of, and it was Moriarty in Sherlock Holmes. And then I discovered that the guy who played Moriarty is this guy's son. lol
1.39 Cromwell gives his opinion on Parliaments attempts to stop Brexit. And then sorts it out.
This film takes on a rather pro-Cromell position. Cromwell was complex and nuanced....neither the dictator nor saint but with elements of both.
Elements of both - a saintly dictator or a dictatorial saint ? Neither description seems quite to fit the O.Cromwell known to history.
@@andrewg.carvill4596 I'd like to hear your views about Cromwell.
@@zenodotusofathens2122 No you wouldn't, I'm an Irish Catholic - and his dealings with Ireland and Catholics were neither complex not nuanced (there, I let my views about him slip!)
@@andrewg.carvill4596 I can appreciate your thoughts on this. For instance Catholics treat St. LOUIS as a great saint and love him believing him holy. The city of St. Louis is named after him.
But you see, I am a Jew; I recognize that as King Louis IX of France he was a huge anti-semitic son of a bitch....as were many famous catholic popes, bishops, and cardinals.
Many Irish Catholics in the USA were also bastards to Jews like the flaming anti-semite, Father Coughlin.
I guess it depends on whose ox is being gored. 😂🤣
@@zenodotusofathens2122 Your sons of bitches and bastards followed by the simile about the ox being gored, reminded me of the time that as a boy I once had the misfortune to throw myself down to lie on a haystack in which someone had left a pitchfork hidden. I should have checked out the haystack first.
The victim of the monster becomes the monster.
Some things never change.Love you Oliver!
What is the music at the end called
Shame about the loud music over his speech at the end. Can't understand what he is saying.
Music at the end is called "Megas Alexandros" by Vangelis.
The United States of America was the embodiment of the English Commonwealth both by the pilgrim faith and by principle. Long live the Protector.
CAN SOMOME TELL ME WHAT THE MUSICAL SCORE FOR THE END THEME IS??? Or the composer??
Charles was a brave man at time of his death but cromwell was right , a man of moral strengh . our country and its laws and practices are better for his life . a
why dont you have a read of irish history there pal
@@jackkenefick2696 No leader of the past is spotless by our standards, but Cromwell did end absolute monarchy, England doesn't have palaces that compare to Madrid, Versailles, or the Winter Palace, or Kremlin.
@@tristanmacmahons9803 all he did was change ruling parties.
@@Prideace93 He established a political system that was the envy of forward thinking liberals in Europe during the enlightenment, Parliment reigns supreme, even above the monarch, the 1649 edition of the Qu'ran which could be published and read freely ushered in an age of freedom of speech. He set the foundations of what would become the American Revolution, which could never have happended in a French or Spanish colony.
Just like our current parliament!!!
When will the world ever have a man like Oliver Cromwell again in these turbulent and trying times?
He is such a character to behold.
2019 needs this
What an actor he is! They don't make them like him anymore.
30.9.19...exactly the same
The UK is back in the same situation at the moment wire parliament refusing to hold an election and being held accountable for its abuse of the sovereign will of the people.
Rubbish, you thick gammon.... You really haven't got a clue... Glorifying a Dictator... What do you want? "The trains to run on time? "
Put down the Daily Mail and get your head out of your A£?e!
Ive seen you spread your bullshit on other videos. Stop talking shit.
Love how they only get offended when he suggests they're not capable of running a brothel lmao.
Richard Harris, a true and passionate actor 👍🏼
And look at what this nation has become...a shame
WHAT A PERFORMANCE By Sir ALEC Guinnes As KING CHARLES BRILLIANT g
What was the music that you dubbed over the ending?
I find it so sad that an Amoral man would take the money rather than think deeply about the deeds he has done rather than think about his country of birth.It beggars belief.And I am Scottish through and through, and not of the divisional crowd.GOD HELP US.
Cromwell had to see the hell of democracy to see the light of just monarchy and then it was too late
Cromwell wanted to retain the monarchy.

I wish they'd release this on bluray.
Thank you
Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell was a king except in name. He ruled as a Regent, a half king. Being a regent is almost like being a full king.
The more things change, the more things stay the same...
What's the name of the song at the end?
What is that music at the end, it's so inspiring?
Megas Alexandros. Vangelis.
Drunkards! Tricksters! Villains! Whoremasters! Godless self-seeking ambitious tricksters!
JDHornski A nice line for Boris to the useless arses in parliament now .
I love these modern dramas !?
Every time i watch this scene i ask myself "What has changed?" Westminster to this day has been filled with career poiliticians whose only true interest is their own long term financial gain.
Makes me wonder what life would be like if England's monarchy came to an end that year. What would the timeline be?
Cromwell's revolution may have ended in eventual failure, but it did lay the groundwork for the eventual American one.
1337penguinman what a ridiculous comment, both those revolutions were completely fuckin different, just because they were revolutions doesn't mean they were identical you dummy.
On the contrary. After the eventual restoration of the Monarchy many of the Puritans fled to New England due to being on the losing side of this conflict. They also brought their ideas of limited and representative government with them. Boston, a city founded by Puritans, was where the American Revolution began. Except this time they won.
Also, after the Restoration, royalists were gunning for the judges and all those who took direct part in the execution of the King. Those responsible fled to the colonies to hide from prosecution. The seeds of revolution were then sown in British North America.
Octavian Caesar Hibernicus Do you not know anything of American history? Cromwell and his ideals laid the very foundations of the constitution of the United States.
With all do respect I say that the foundation for a revolution such as America's was the crucial ideas of the Enlightenment rather than Cromwells England.
Did you see Cromwells remedy back then for curing dandruff & acne and migraine hey? He knew how to sort it he did!
Wow 👌 👏
Why the loud music at the end you messed it up? But at least you have it on here, this morning many people will be watching this again.
Wish we could do this now..
Does anyone know what's the music piece played at 04:35 ?
That's what we need too do bring back the lord protector
This statement @ 3:29 could apply to any English parliament, for the last 350 years.
King Charles: "If you strike me down and I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"
Past is always prologue.
Truly one of Thee most divisive men in history. For the people of the people, incorruptible. Lord protector. But also destructive, war like and tortured. I can't decide on my opinion of him.
Is it possible that just before he disbanded Parliament that he saw the value of having a king or a queen? I kind of get that impression that he saw the value after I realized that when you elect a whole bunch of people, they quite often times break promises and stab their own constituents in the back.
Well he basically became like Charles in the end so yes. Cromwell wasn't a huge reformer like some others in the New Model Army, he wanted to make peace with the King originally but after the 2nd and 3rd English Civil Wars he deemed Charles and all of his bloodline untrustworthy so moved England to being a republic. Also worth noting Parliament in 1650 wasn't exactly democratic the Lords was not inferior to the Commons and the Commons was elected by landholders alone.
What is the name of the song or piece playing in the background towards the end?
They really didn't care about historical accuracy in this film at all huh? Sir Thomas Fairfax wasn't an MP in the Long Parliament. He was Cromwell's superior officer in the New Model Army and it was only Fairfax's retirement that allowed Cromwell to rise to being the supreme political and military leader of England. Certainly not a supporter of the Long Parliament's or the Rump Parliament's power.
@WorshipInTruth
Thank you
=]
Cromwell was the best Lord Protector Britain ever had
Wow can't believe how much Alec Guinness looks like the actual King Charles 1
Yes ... just like the photogaphs of King Charles .
Why didn't his body disappear before getting axed?
Religious autocracy. Some small minded people find this comforting and righteous.
What think of the coronaicion of king charles
If only this would happen today.
Pusieron la musica fuerte a proposito ??

@Herman6644
Free in what way? Abolished a king because he disolved Parliament. Cromwell took power and abolished Parliament, how Ironic. No one is free, simple fact, freedom is an ilusion.
And I'm British trhough and through.
And it's ok, I'm not that good with spelling and grammar.
AlexVonWolfstein i always thought the exact same thing
We need oliver cromwell now
If only we could sort out May in the same way for her treasonous behaviour!
History repeating itself. Remove them !
Yes... It's called democracy..you vote them out at an election, according to our CONSTITUTION. Perhaps that's an alien concept to fascists...
@@jonathanellwood Unlike the EU dictatorship. Perhaps that a concept not alien to communists...
General John Archer Lejeune / luh jern (CMC XIII )
would be proud of this fine gentleman.
I hereby declare this Parliament DISSOLVED!!!
He Olivier Cromwell didn't give parliment power. This movie is historical revisions,
He described the United States Congress....I am sorry to say
What's the music you used at the very end?
On 20 April 1653, he dismissed the Rump Parliament by force, setting up a short-lived nominated assembly known as Barebone's Parliament before being invited by his fellow leaders to rule as Lord Protector of England (which included Wales at the time), Scotland, and Ireland from 16 December 1653.[4] As a ruler, he executed an aggressive and effective foreign policy. He died from natural causes in 1658 and was buried in Westminster Abbey. The Royalists returned to power along with King Charles II in 1660, and they had his corpse dug up, hung in chains, and beheaded.
Cromwell is one of the most controversial figures in the history of the British Isles, considered a regicidal dictator by historians such as David Sharp,[5] a military dictator by Winston Churchill,[6] and a hero of liberty by John Milton, Thomas Carlyle, and Samuel Rawson Gardiner. His tolerance of Protestant sects did not extend to Catholics; his measures against them in Ireland have been characterized by some as genocidal or near-genocidal,[7] and his record is harshly criticized in Ireland.[8] He was selected as one of the ten greatest Britons of all time in a 2002 BBC poll.[9
Albus Dumbledore kills Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Marcus Aurelius kills Prince Faisal.
How things go around?
Love him or hate him, Cromwell was right about this.
What is the song at the end
Its got a choral component but there are no words that I can hear. (Think 'Ray Conniff') It's possible that ,late on, someone thought that backing music should support Cromwell's speech and they chose a piece that could drown out even a loudmouth like Richard Harris.
I think it's called Megas Alexandros by Vangelis. Saw it in the comments. Been waiting for it actually.
Who knew that killing a king won't change anything.
