[MandeeSparkle]

I'm not only liking this for the obvious reasons, but your description of the video made me crack up!

Tennant speaks with true understanding and feeling.

*melts*

EVERYONE GO WATCH HIM IN THE RECENT BBC VERSION OF HAMLET! God he's such an actor...

Probably the first reading of a sonnet out there that enabled me to understand every word.

(My fault, I know.)

[MandeeSparkle]

@Nobody277 No, No! I agree. I have seen many many productions of Much Ado, and been in three myself. But when I saw him as Benedick I understood lines that my brain had rushed over. I heard things I had never heard before. He has SUCH an understanding of Shakespeare and he NEVER throws ONE word away. So many actors do. I work with High School kids on Shakespeare and always refer them to David Tennant's Shakespearean acting. He's BRILLIANT. A true natural.

They chose god people to read these sonnets- really make them sound like the love poetry so many of them are. Check out sonnet 130 with Alan Rickman sometime if you need convincing.
