Best one on youtube yet, the only genuinely performed reading of this soliloquy. Well done.

cmon i need hand gestures for my rhetoric class

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing.

Well read.

He reminds me of someone from Harry Potter...

Well, it's better than my version, though I did have a paper crown.  ;)

Ah, good justification. And apologies for my flippancy before. Was hardly constructive critism.

I can see where you're coming from with your interpretation of those lines. However, I took it as more a lamentation of the death of his wife and his own that he knows to be the only way of coming out of this....It's not so much that life has no more power over him, as much as it is that he has nothing left to lose..... But that's just my interpretation :)

it was a little fast but good; one with actual emotion in it. and dcbadger, have you seen ian mckellan's? it is breathtaking.

[JacobWHHughes]

this is helping me for an english test too, thanks for making this. the close up shot is a really cool way of showing it too

Right, you know the lines, good. Now make it feel as if it you're saying this for the first time. Also find the power behind the lines, this is a soliloque about how life no longer has any power over Macbeth. Other than that, you have a great voice, well learnt, and keep it up.
