I saw Mark Rylance first in Wolf Hall. I had not planned on watching the series because the books were so flawless that a BBC series could only ruin them. I told my friend I wasn't watching, and she said, "But Mark Rylance is in it!" And I asked who he was when he's a home. She said, "Just watch the first episode." I practically crawled into my television and fell head over heels for this consummate, brilliant actor. Even though I live in the States, I've been able to see him on stage 5 times. What an amazing actor!
I'm here because of it. The movie itself was far left Hollyweird propaganda trash (though still enjoyable if you just switched the politics of it around a 180) but he stole the scenes he was in. "EeeEverything is fine".😛 Didn't realize he played the father in Dunkirk; knew I'd seen him before but couldn't place him.
I first saw him in Bridge of Spies, and I remember clearly walking away stunned by his performance. Found out later that he’s considered to possibly be the finest Shakespearean actor of our time. Very well deserved Oscar.
I first saw him in his twenties playing 'Hamlet' in 1989....was 'skint' as they used to say but was driven to go three times...firstly to Stratford, then to the first night at the Barbican, (when a large hydraulic platform went wrong) and then to the last incredible night when the audience threw daffodils at the actors who threw them back....an immortal moment to end an utterly incredible production! Never seen such beauty and originality in any other interpretation of 'The Dane.' Before or since.
I thought he was incredible in Don't Look Up. His instruction was clear, play an amalgam of every modern age billionaire, and he did so marvelously. You could literally pick a nuance of Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Larry Page. Everything from his appearance, to how he spoke, carried himself, it was truly incredible.
He studied at the Shakespeare institute alongside my English teacher. It’s remarkable to know that they knew each other personally! she says he’s a very kind and nice man. He’s such a brilliant actor!
Wolf Hall, which I have watched many times, was my first encounter with Mark. His 'performance' (which doesn't feel like a performance) is spellbinding... for three reasons: he doesn't judge Cromwell's character (despite history having done so rather savagely); he brings his innocence to the part; and his impeccable variation - by turns, silent and understated, then forceful and slightly out of control. He is, to my mind, not just one of the greatest actors of our times, but the peerless instructor of his craft.
I've seen him on stage twice and met him on a few occasions as we went to the same drama school. On stage he was astonishingly present and spontaneous. I have no idea how he can be like that. In real life, he was very very gracious and patient (considering whenever I was speaking to him I was basically bugging him) and genuinely humble and warm hearted. He's someone I always aspired to be like, both as an actor and a human being. Until recently, he was still almost unknown to audiences outside the UK, and even within the UK he's not that famous, but among actors he's been held in the highest regard for years.
Saw him in Don't Look Up and... you cannot see this actor inside the character of Peter Isherwell. He vanishes. Truly one of the best performers going.
He truly is. Aswell as being a humble and incredibly intelligent gentle man. I disagree on innocence- I think that’s projection on the part of OP. His lack of life experience. Not trying to be rude or or offensive, but naivety or innocence is never a part I’ve seen in his work. Despite him talking about himself that way. It’s not a way Americans know so well … and something you lovely mfers could take a page from. Innocence of character does not mean it the way you all seemingly do or understand
I first saw him in his Tony winning performance in Boeing-Boeing, and he was incredible. He made me completely rethink my views on comedic timing. He’s a master at his craft, and by far my favorite actor.
Last year I watched footage of Twelfth Night performed at the Globe. He starred alongside an all male cast. He played Olivia and he made it by far one of the funniest performances I’ve ever watched. Just in his mannerisms in portraying her fluster before Viola (in disguise) - seeing the character break from a stern lady to a girl with a crush. I suppose maybe that knowing she’s actually played by a man sort of contributes to the comedic factor, but I like to think Rylance’s performance really gave it the kick it needed.
i was watching Don't Look Up and the CEO looks so familiar and I had to google it up. In the end, it was the same actor from Don't Look Up (Anorak the creator of Oasis). There's something in his character that I noticed him immediately.
I think "innocence" is the wrong word for Rylance's acting style - it is more a particular form of assumed naivety. He does not JUDGE others and therefore does not critically examine his own actions. It creates a form of calm rationality- stillness if you like - even when he is threatening someone or is being threatened.
I first saw Mark in Angels And Insects - and was so impressed by his performance and the goodness of his character. Well worth a look. Now, to see him in Don't Look Up, it's astounding to see how he disappears into the Elon Musk type of character. I can see another Oscar nomination for this.
Only people who watch just American cinema and blockbuster don't know who he is. People now a days don't care about good acting just fame. He's great a d has worked with really good directors
I just found out Mr. Rylance to have one _spitting image_ of a fellow actor over here in *Trizonesia* . 😲 The footage the following link refers to was filmed, as well as broadcasted, 30 years ago, in 1994: ua-cam.com/video/_PlhcDGw6JA/v-deo.html 😲
Mark Rylance as Thomas Cromwell in Wolf Hall was the best damn bit of acting in history and I will fight anyone who dares dispute that.
I totally agree. You could read what he was thinking, no words needed. Ugh, now I have to go back and watch it again.
He is incredible in bones and all. one of the best performances I have seen.
This! I don't know how he does it, but he was so incredibly believable as this excentric, inhuman, but yet very human cannibal.

I saw him for the first time in Dont Look Up and he killed it!! This guy was born to act
He was the best part of that film imo
he was such a funny bad guy
That makes two of of us!

He out classes every other actor in that movie for sure! What an incredible performance.

Mark Rylance is a remarkable actor.
Simply the best and a beautiful genuine person

yes he is unforgettable in Don't look Up ... "this must be a Brontorock" ...
Yes! This.
He studied at the Shakespeare institute alongside my English teacher. It’s remarkable to know that they knew each other personally! she says he’s a very kind and nice man. He’s such a brilliant actor!
"Angels and Insects"
Years and years ago.....
Amazing amazing amazing
And this stillness is definitely exhibited in that.

Great video. It’s been a dream of mine to see Rylance onstage. He’s absolutely magnetic in everything I’ve seen him in.
Honestly it’s the most breaking taking thing to witness. He was so personable and present when I would run into him at the Globe or his rehearsal.
Ive been lucky enough to see Mark in Othello at the Globe. Stunning!
He HAUNTED me in don't look up.
I loved his performance in don't look up, Thanks for the video!
He was amazing in Don't Look up as the CEO of Bash.
He was a complete psycho in Don't Look Up.

I think about this video all the time. Good analysis 🙌
This was such a smart take on what he's doing. Thanks.
That was lovely, thank you, spot on, helpful and interesting.
He is one of the BEST actors of our time.

I first saw him in Wolf Hall, and even though he was 100% not what l expected, his performance was wonderful to watch
I agree. I had to get used to Mark and discovered how truly wonderful he is.

Great analysis! Clicked because Stillness is something my acting coach has always placed a lot of emphasis on, and Mark is a singular talent. Thanks!

Loved this diagnosis. Great work.
good video, i like your style, i just subscribed
i was watching Don't Look Up and the CEO looks so familiar and I had to google it up. In the end, it was the same actor from Don't Look Up (Anorak the creator of Oasis). There's something in his character that I noticed him immediately.
Would it help?
This guy is amazing!
Bro this is amazing I have been searching such analysis for a while . Put out more bro
Enjoyed this, thanks. Nice insight into what makes him so good.
to be innocent is to be naive, open, willing, enthusiastic, and agreeable.
I want a movie about the history of Bash and Peter Isherwell.
I had to look him up on here he's so fucking funny on don't look up
CEO of Bash?
B. A. S. H
I totally agree ... I just watched dont look up and its EXACTLY that 🔥
I LOVED how non threatening and yet threatening he was in this film!
Great stuff, thanks
thanks this was really good! just subscribed!
Great video
Great video. Hope to see more videos soon! You’ve got a new subscriber in me!
- May I say something, Mr. Isherwell?🥺👉👈 - No. 👨🏻🦳
😕
Oooh! I binge Wolf Hall every night when I need to sleep……..where did that bit about gutting come from 😳
I’ve met Mark and he’s as innocent and as still as any of his ‘Characters’
He was perfectly cast in Bridge of Spies. Hed be the last person anyone would ever suspect.
remarkable in ready player one,now in the outfit. great actor.
GOOD ANALYSIS!
I saw him in Dunkri0 and trail of Chicago 7 very good actor god bless

What episode was that Wolf Hall clip from. I just finished the series and I never caught it.
i cant remember which episode but he is investigating the threatening letter or dog killing for anne bolyn.
It's from a deleted scene
He screamed in The Trial of the Chicago 7!
If you like Mark Rylance you should watch The Outfit, i never thought i would like a movie that only takes place in one location, one scenario...
Credits should reflect Wolf Hall as two words.
Right! Thank you Lizanne!

when he's wearing the peach hat and long hair he looks like one of my uncles fishing buddies back in the early 90's
*_It's as if the man became famous as soon as Dunkirk came out_*
Subscribing before 12 M subs
Lmao the hulk jokes
See Angels & Insects
Still don't know his name until "Don't Look Up"
He looks so hot in Intimacy
