If you have not yet seen or read his Noble prize acceptance speech you tube it now! It is very powerful

An amazing man

@andlookmore Except that we now can't here in the UK, because Channel 4 has seen fit to block our viewing of what everyone informs me was a memorable, life-affirming speech "on copyright grounds". I'm sure Pinter would have laughed out loud at the irony of this. I however, am not laughing. Fuck you, Channel 4.

Google Video has this as I post this reply.

Else you can find it searching

"harold pinter nobel prize acceptance speech" through google.

On a similar note to this speach: CHECK OUT Howard Zinn's People speak. Especially, for me

Stacey Ann Chin, who performs the poem The Low Road by Marge Piercy

Odd that the old sadist should be remembered for being anti-war; US, British and Israeli war that is, not the wars of his Marxist friends.

Harold Pinter wrote and spoke from the heart. All his life he opposed oppression. Along with Beckett, he was the most important and influential playwright of the 20th century. His work is eloquent, surprising and always hilarious. He won the Noble prize, and only a handful of countries around the world have not seen his 29 brilliant plays, not to mention his many screenplays. if you'd like your views to matter, I suggest you get off youtube, and get to work.

An influencial artist and sharp politician

one of the few of the best black sheep of the Art village in UK but with a heart too big to belong to this country only. An amazing Jew.
