Marat/Sade 13/X

[rebwanz]

I was in this musical 10 years ago.  Quite a trip.

Would like to the the whole film, on you tube.

[peterobs]

Amazing. Would have loved to have seen this when it first appeared on the stage under Peter Brooks direction at the RSC in the late '60's. What a shock it must have been.

[Skulldini]

Damndest thing I finde about this flick, .. it's creepier and more disturbing than just about any horror flick, .. though it really isn't catagorizable as one ?

[emmers57]

The first time I saw this was on TCM at like 3 in the morning. I just sat there riveted.

[JosephDauph]

I was surprised with how good this was xD

my class mates made it out to be hard to understand and such :P

I rather enjoyed it all and all xD

[outinsider]

Peter Brook is a genius.

[unclealand]

Much better musical than "Sound of Music" or even "Grease."

@ skulldini--you can't catagorize it--it is one of a kind, and was done in a time--60's-- in which this kind of theatre of cruetly was making it's way into the mainstream. It is a brilliant piece. It is of an era when history and theatre was meant to shock. I was lucky to play the part of Corday in a live production, and I have to say it was the most intellectual and exciting work I've ever done.

Thank You so much for uploading the whole thing, I am currently in a performance of Marat/Sade as Duperret and this has helped so much with characterisation :)

[GreatGrumbledook]

Well, brave Charlotte Corday, who did cure the lust for blood of Marat, with his very own lifeblood, belongs to the sort of women, who affirm that the Greek Antigone (as we know her from the plays of Aeschylus and Sophocles) was not a myth after all; as she did no less boldly defended her actions before the state power as Antigone did in the play of Sophocles of the selfsame name:

[GreatGrumbledook]

Antigone: "Yes, because this was not a law decreed by Zeus, nor by Zeus daughter, Justice, who rules with the gods of the Underworld. Nor do I believe that your decrees have the power to override those unwritten and immutable laws decreed by the gods. These are laws which were written neither yesterday nor today but from a time when no man saw their birth; they are eternal! How could I be afraid to disobey laws decreed by any man when I know that Id have to answer to the gods below..."

So is this like a remake of shutter island?

[tarwater01]

@thatsprettygood Um, this like predates Shutter Island by like 40-50 years

[thatsprettygood]

@tarwater01 Of course! Only kidding... Thanks for posting tarwater. One of my favorite films.

[oltwitchy]

@tarwater01 Haw, you told him.

[Skulldini]

@tarwater01 This flick doesn't look nearly that old though.

[unclealand]

Much better than most movie musicals like "Sound of Music" or "Moulin Rouge." The ending is one of the rare times Peter Brook shows signs of life.

[IAMVOL111]

@Skulldini And, of course, THOSE two are ROCK musicals,.. this isn't.

[zzzelzar]

That ending is obscenely abrupt. Amazingly effective performance and direction. This is... no words. The whole thing is brilliant.

[MissNellGwynne]

This play is Genious.

I love Artaudian influenced theatre.

[DeusCaritasEst33]

Thank you for posting this! Helped me a lot in my HIST class!

[TheMarkKarl]

[aaaaaaalleexxyy]

[Capricaquarius89]

Brilliance

[pattisapu]

This upload is a public service. Thanks, Tarwater01.

[KenTelevision]

Yikes France!!! You killed the greatest man ever to live... no not the Marquise de Sade.

[jbally9365]

Flippin heck.. I hadn't seen the end before, powerful stuff! Well done Peter Brook!

[bohemiastudios]

Those that started these wars, should pay for it themselves.

[moshe1a]

Thank you tarwater1!Great job!

[bohemiastudios]

Long live Marat! A true "Friend of the people"!

[badaouiah]

Thank you Tarwater1. I was looking for this film. Keep the good ones coming.

[denisencanta]

Thank you so much for putting this up in the internet, for having taken the time. It is so worth while to see.

[SinNanna]
