Richard III - Scene 18

[cyberyanmar]

is richmond dominic west?

[TheDeadlyFurby]

If he was already falling, why did he shoot him?

[cyberyanmar]

@TheDeadlyFurby to get him well dead

[lunaticorthelover]

I love how Richmond breaks the fourth wall at the end by smiling at us, the same way Richard has been doing throughout the whole film.

And that end, when Richard is falling into the pit of fire... his face is the definition of pure IDGAF.

[BartJBols]

why did he shoot the guy on the mounted gun? that doesn't make sense at all : /

[capra224]

[gol67]

1:09 WHAT THE FUCK FUCK IS HE SHOOTING TO!?

[Dan24KB]

@gol67 Bahaha!

Totally noticed that!

[1920peace]

I find it humorous that they play a happy, upbeat song as Richard III slowly falls into the fire, plus the creepy smile.

[WatchMyAwesomeVideos]

that was amazing!

Thanks for sharing

[seamonsterization]

Why didn't Richard bring his own planes?

[victorbrunswick]

@seamonsterization

That's because Lord Stanley (Richmond's uncle and the air force commander) defected and joined forces with his nephew and brought the planes with him.

I think Olivier's actings is much to dry and old fashioned. McKellen brings terrific acting chops to this role and creates an especially devious Richard and my personal favorite interpretation.

[warhols25]

Laurence Olivier's portrayal in my opinion is more engaging

[DarthWill3]

You know, if they added a comic twist to his suicide, Richard would've shouted out "CANNONBALL!"

Don't you agree?

[EmperorofTerra]

how the heck did he miss em .... LOL

[panzercat1939]

To Jezzo237,you must be out of your mind!That is one of the finest endings I have ever seen.The look and song are perfect,the grin on Richmond's face is a dark match to Richard's own.As one king falls another rises,and young Richmond was sitting on top of the world.

[Jezzo237]

I dont like how he falls and it plays that style of music it really spoils what could have been a great ending

[galidorn1]

a decent movie but I'll always like Oliver's better

[galidorn1]

The contemporary custom to portray villains for the sake of the viewers vanity as always being cowering, kinieving wretches to make the viewer root for his demise having no qualities to admire, strips the power of this story of the observationary commentary it intends. I still appreciated Oliver's Richard III more

[galidorn1]

as that character was able to walk into a room despite his small mangled stature and make others seem small. That could rail with a powerful thunder and was known to acts of Valor himself a few admirable qualities to go with it creating the conflict for the viewer just like people in real life that do evil things.

[MsLaurieStrode]

Perfect!!!!

[julscrabble]

is called as the last songs

[SniperKorelev]

"A horse, a horse, mi Kingdom for a horse!", I LOVE this scene, thank!!!.

[hammertapping]

thanks

[ludocrat]

I thought it spectacularly clever when I first saw this, actually. Especially the amusing moment when his jeep gets stuck - cue the cry for a horse which wouldn't have broken down like a stupid jeep. Terrific.

The texture of the language is undamaged by the visual effects or the setting. It might even have been more profoundly revealed to Shakespeare's latest audience by the interpretation.

Ah well, I suppose I'm just more susceptible to 'idealist myth' (whatever that means).

[franconbean]

wow...

the last four seconds are hilarious.

[mattybo512]

lol yeah he is one crazy mofo
