Shakespeare's 'Now is the winter of our discontent' soliloquy performed by Laurence Olivier in his film version of 'Richard III'
Three fine actors in succession (Ron Cook, Jonathan Slinger, and Ian McKellen) performing Shakespeare's "Now is the winter of our discontent" -- opening soliloquy from "Richard III".
Laurence Olivier's Richard III tries to woo Anne (Claire Bloom) over-- making it harder than in the original Shakespeare--her husband's dead body.
Olivier splits the seduction scene into two parts (this is part one), and some of the lines (like "Clarence beware thou keepest me from the light....) are from Cibber in the scene that follows.
Shakespeare's 'Now is the winter of our discontent' soliloquy performed by Ian McKellen in his film version of 'Richard III' from 1995.
---though with the long introduction in this modernized version, the soliloquy actually starts about 5 and a half minutes into this clip.
