You're a plague Webber. You're an overthrow..."

Doing this for my scene at school, playing McCann, really helped a lot in regards to how he expresses himself, great scene.
-
doing this scene for drama at school. Playing Goldberg.
This helped me a lot with different intentions that I can put into my character.
Such a weird play, but love it. Crazy Pinter.

Netflix doesn't even have this movie on their list. Typical.

@mrmaxo yes i realise that, i studied this play and basically wrote a 4000 word essay on it so yes, i know....but i still think the way he says it is weird......

@jizzbrakkett That's actually exactly how it's written in the play though :)
I think (and its only opinion) it's about the power of words, and words alone, to break down and destroy. What McCann and Goldberg are actually saying is pretty much gibberish, but their continual assault on Stan's senses is too much. Plus they slip in some questions that suggest a prior professional (criminal) association with him, a little bit of subtext about why Stan has hidden himself away and what he's hiding from. In amongst all the nonsense questions, Stan might have broken down. I dunno

My Mom told me that the nuns treated her like this when she was in parochial school.
