  • Fffuck!He is so sexyyy

  • Mercy, mercy!!!

  • I was a year old when this was filmed, I'm sure he's about 35-40 here, and I'd still ride him like a sexy cow girl ....

  • It always will be relevant and just as hard to solve. I personally have no use for religion or authority... the only person I ever automatically respected was the Heart Surgeon who had just performed open-heart surgery on my Mother. I shook his hand with gratefulness... everyone else has to earn it and not just by presenting me with a title... Father, President, Vice President, etc.

  • Your slavery is their liberty, your poverty is their prosperity...

  • What a speech and what a performance!

  • Some of you should be listening to what he is saying, not just the sound of his voice. It's a brilliant soliloquy made all the more poignant by the fact that this was a real person who killed himself rather than let the repressive state do him in. Listen to what he's saying. It's still just as pertinent today as it was in the 18th century.

  • @MsAppassionata Sounds like Alan's own politics, Labour party socialist. He's brilliant!

  • @Samsis2 I'm sure that's why he took the part. It's one of my favorite acting performances of his. Love it.

  • omg...his voice is amazing *.*

  • This is as timely now as it was during the French Revolution. Mr. Rickman brings to Mr. Barnes' words an emotional, intellectual, and spiritual depth that is riveting and deeply moving.

  • ooh, not heard of this

  • umm is this a movie or a play or sumthingg

  • If some normal preacher was preaching this to me I don't think I'd be able to listen and stay awake. But with the beautiful voice of Alan Rickman I'm sitting here completely enthused. I still have no clue what he's talking about ....but I could watch this over and over just because of his voice.

  • @Crstklkn That is the power of Alan Rickman's voice!

  • Thanks a lot for putting this up... I love his way of expression

  • Beautiful performance!! Thank you for uploading this! :)

  • Part two is coming soon =)

  • What performance is this from? Barchester Chronicles?

  • No it is Alan Rickman as Jacques Roux

    (monologue by playwright Peter Barnes) 1989. Try to google for more information & thanks for ur comment.

  • Mercy, he is wonderful! Thanks for putting this up.....

  • Thanks! Part two is coming soon!
