This is the singularly most interesting take I've ever seen on this soliloquy. Some people are born to play certain roles - seeing Andrew in this is such a gift.

It’s a very conversational style, he has the words so at his command that it’s like he’s talking to you or himself, not declaiming lines or performing.

Indeed. - I am 74, and when I saw the clip of ToBeOrNot last year, I knew I had been waiting for this Hamlet since before Scott was born...

The greatest thing that can be said about this performance is that it truly feels like Hamlet is GENERATING the words as he speaks them, not reciting. It may seem like acting 101, but often with Shakespeare people can be become so chained to the same expected rhythm and phrasing that it sounds like a poem being recited, as opposed to a man speaking his thoughts in the present

That is a good point, but still I can't Stand this guy's performances of Hamlet. Seems he's trying Too hard to make it comprehensible - and I hate all the twisty hand motions; dislike the whole thing, looking at his soliloquies.

I'm with the theory that the ghost is not the father but the devil, and there's plenty more evidence than just hamlet himself suspecting it. And even that piece of evidence in itself is significant. Hamlet knew his father extremely well obviously, but he has a feeling that something isn't right with the ghost, I think if it truly was his father he wouldn't even question it, he'd just know.

Scott is a good actor but this is just bizarre. He disfigures the poetry without adding any depth to the character. All the nuance drowned in sweat and spit. I would have such a fellow whipped.

Glad someone else sees this the way I see it. If I played it this way, any classical actor would call me an idiot, but when a name like Andrew Scott does, it’s seen as “inspired.” It’s simply un-theatrical in my opinion, and as you say, disfigures the poetry.

If you could take Scott's perceptive emphases out of the mannered mess, and give the speech some disciplined structure, you'd have something that would be effective!

It seems that people who are used to watching plays and engaging with Shakespeare dislike this performance, but those who never really could "get" Shakespeare really enjoy it. I think the "disfiguring" of the poetry serves to better convey its meaning if you aren't aware of it yet, even though it might frustrate those who want to engage with it on a deeper level.

@@imatreebelieveme6094 There are these laws based around the speaking of verse within these plays that are adhered to by so many in the profession. As a professional actor, I think rules were meant to be broken and Shakespeare would almost certainly have agreed!
