  • Undoubtedly one of the best performances of Hamlet. His method is definitely unique and one that leaves an impression. His voice helped a lot. Mel Gibson has nothing on Burton, although he played the part well in his own right.

    There seems to be an overflow of trolls on some of these Richard Burton videos. It's amusing how they would devote such time and attention towards slandering a deceased person, but I suggest letting them drown in their own attention-seeking and untrue claims. Ignore them

  • @RichardElden lol there you go again. You do realize I can see you're simply copying your previous comments right?

    No one cares what you think of this man. If you don't like him, don't watch the videos.

    Why would I care that you wish he got cancer? The man died already, so everything you say is irrelevant and meaningless. It's not achieving anything but wasting your time.

    You hate him, yet devote so much time and attention? Oh the irony

    Do you just go through all of these videos every day? Lmao

see all

  • A schizophrenic hamlet!!! Guys this is the most unkindest cut of all!!!

  • This is the first time I have seen this. A masterful and different piece, from Mel, Kenneth and of course Olivier. Thank You for this.

  • Hello everybody, I have produced a student film version of this speech and any feedback anybody thdy can offer would be most appreciated. Its on my channel.

  • I go through this every day.

  • @mikemosocw Sure he was. But you're a twat.

  • @mikemosocw LMAO

  • A very great Hamlet, by a great actor

  • Takes my breath away. Wow. (Also- are people seriously having pitching matches on here? Just enjoy the scene).

  • RB made many insulting remarks while drunk. Things that were often hurtful. I would imagine that he could very well have made racist remarks while under the influence, but a racist man does not have a love affair with a black woman, Jeannie Bell, I THINK her name was, and place her son in an exclusive school while she was living with him in his home.
