Samuel Beckett - Not I (1973), Part 1 of 2

if i blurt out "Rocky Horror Picture Show" would i get flamed?

I have NO words to express my admiration for Billie Whitelaw, and indeed anyone who can perform this, much less Samuel Beckett who created this amazing piece!

I see Billie Whitelaw on a weekly basis because i work in the bar in the retirement home she is in...so any questions you have..i can ask her...

she was aughra in dark crsystal too which i loveed as a ki.d.could not believe that!

ask her if beckett was for real when he shot down all the deep detailed questions reporters and such put to him about all the supposed symbols and meanings in his plays, and did he really NOT put that much of the philosophy and ideas of his time into his plays, but just wanted something that looked good onstage? i always thought he just disliked being badgered by reporters and brooded deeply on what each word and charcter might mean.

I love this, so brilliantly imagined.

Wow! Is there anyone else on the planet who can right like this?

I don't think so. Can you imagine having to memorize this AND act it? Check out FOOTFALLS, too, from the BECKETT ON FILM series here in Youtube.

Oh God this is terrifying
