[RobMakeVideo]

We watched this in our theater class and everybody straightfaced it the entire time but as soon as it was over everybody burst out laughing in the halls.

[ChameleonHead]

I love this play, especially this particular version of it. It really captures mental illness especially with the designs of the masks and the way this guy talks...entertaining in a beatifully fucked up way

[alternativebassist]

@ChameleonHead *except this version is horribly acted and horribly translated*

[ChameleonHead]

@alternativebassist thats why it was so funny. the complete outrageousness and how over done it was with the questionable acting was inspirational in a strange way. its complete madness. complete madness=fun

[songtree27]

@ChameleonHead you fucked up 

[ChameleonHead]

@songtree27 yep :)

[Howcomejustcuz]

Cat daddy ! XD

[CountlessPWNZ]

AHGGGGG

[msr410]

Kreon: "what's good mothafucka?"

OEdipus: "dude... stop calling me that..."

[Megasevo23]

my english teacher stopped showing us this movie after this scene, we were all "acting immature" and laughing hysterically

[dl6omen]

This is tragically comical ;)

[NightTrainRollin]

[Pritikapradhan]

Pure Gold.

[iPhoneElite8]

@DantonProductions haha its a sophocles book made into a movie in 1957..watched it in school and couldnt stop laughing at this part...found it on youtube and favorited it. (this is supposed to be 100% serious haha)

[iPhoneElite8]

i watched this in school, and almost rented the dvd to watch this. THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT UP

[DeaneMMFlaherty]

we saw this in my greek class last year, one of the best moments of the year, ridiculously funny clip, although it is bad acting

[Devininity]

LOL What is this from?

I know it's Oedipus but I don't know what the movie title is and I can't seem to find this version no matter how hard I search

[Tuckerscreator]

It's from the 1957 film of Oedipus Rex, directed by Tyrone Guthrie. Understand, this is ACTUALLY how Greek theater was performed in those times!

[Devininity]

@Tuckerscreator I know I saw it in a class I had I just really wanted to get this movie but my teacher never told us what it was called, thanks =)

[AtrocityPlaster]

oh god

i cant get over this

we just watched this movie in class today

[BLyricalHipHop]

Hey you guys know that Brad Pitt played Oedipus in this movie? Before he went into acting he was an amateur downslope skiier, and the skiing motions he has perfected are showcased in this scene.

And like many others, I saw this in my English class. Our teacher played it over and over and then made the class get up and do the skiing motion haha

[gatorsfan58]

hahaha. aww they skipped out on the hiss part

[BLyricalHipHop]

Ah shit you're right!

[gasmaster01]

@BLyricalHipHop no he didn't

[cygal50]

This never ceases to amuse me.

[sk8tergamer]

[xxAyuRainbowxx]
