Wow! I was only here to gawk at Patrick Stewart with hair, but this is the first time I really felt like I understood Shakespeare. That hit me hard!!! Thanks Ian Richardson, whoever you are!
Unnoticed by most (due, no doubt to Ian and Patrick), is the gravedigger, played by Ronald Lacey, who everyone has seen getting his face melted in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
blood117 except they didn't have hollodecks back then. if you watch the very first episode of tng you would know that the enterprise D was one of the first start ships to have encorperated hollodeck simulations.
People who only know these fine actors from pop-culture might be interested that the gravedigger is the evil little Gestapo Nazi with the specs from 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'
Thank you for pointing this out. His EYES looked familiar to me but I couldn't quite place him. You saved me from HOURS of mind exploitation in placing those eyes.
The reason they made the series is because they realized TV technology, particularly in colour, had become advanced enough to really do the art history of Europe justice.
The people who think they saw Richardson in 'Star Trek' may be thinking of David Warner, another fine Shakespearean with a similar saturnine specialty.
Warner is a fine actor, though not seen him much these days. Another with a great voice, they really do teach that stage voice well here. Ian Richardson was a Scot and you'd hardly know that, and I doubt Stewart spoke like that as a lad growing up in Huddersfield!
I'd recommend the original 'House of Cards' with Ian Richardson (Hamlet here) playing the lead role, to anyone who enjoyed the Netflix US version and not seen the UK original.
I’ve always wanted to watch the UK version. The US version is good, but I think they stretched it out a little too much, and of course all of that coming about about Kevin Spacey being a despicable human being.
As Ian Richardson only played bit parts in movies and concentrated more on TV work in his later years, he never gained that pop culture notoriety that other British classical actors like Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alec Guinness or Judi Dench enjoy. A pity though, as he was one of the most fascinating thespians of his generation.
Horatio is Captain Jean-Luc Picard, the gravedigger is Melty Nazi from Raiders of the Lost Ark. And Hamlet, Ian Richardson, was one of the Grey Poupon gents. But he also created the character Francis Urquhart in the original House of Cards, now (as the more pronouncable Francis Underwood) played by Kevin Spacey.
Funny, I recognised the gravedigger as the slimy Harris from Porridge, and many TV shows from the same period, but never connected him with Raiders. He's actually _way_ more likeable in this clip than and other role I remember him in.
The fact that Patrick Stewart sure doesn't look nearly 50 years older from how you see him in this is incredible. This is the better part of 2 decades before Star Trek! What, did he stop aging for a decade plus?
He was still in his twenties in this, but he already looked/sounded like he was in his forties. Kind of like how Tommy Lee Jones has looked like an old man since he was young.
Somehow he looked older in DUNE (1984) than he did in star trek? Hes giving Steve Martin a run for his money as "the man whos looked 55 since hes 25 until hes 75"
When I was in primary school we had a book day where you were meant to dress up as a character from a story. I spent ages making a skull out of clay to say "Alas poor Yorik I knew him well." with, but I dropped the bloody thing on the floor and it smashed into a thousand pieces :(
I think it's a wig, he has said in interviews he lost all his hair at a really young age, like 18 or 19. But his face looks eerily the same. How many people can say that of themselves after 45 years ?
Actually there are many people who do age very slowly. Sometimes it's good genetics, sometimes it's because a person takes very good care of themselves. Sometimes, more or less, a combination in varying amounts of each. Barring any catastrophic disease or mishap, people will enjoy slow aging, great health, a long life if they take care of themselves, mind, body & spirit.
Patrick Stewart is portraying Horatio. I closed my eyes and LISTENED to the voices. As soon as Horatio spoke, I opened them...and it WAS Sir Patrick! NO DOUBT!Computer! TEA! Earl Grey....HOT!!!!
I'm reading Patrick Stewart's memoir "Making it So" right now. It's excellent. His long rise to the top was an honest one. Fun fact, he was bald at 19 and used to joke when auditioning for the directors of cash-strapped companies that since he was so wig-ready it was like they were getting 2 actors for the price of one!
Patrick Stewart is wonderful as Polonius in BBC Hamlet - Sejanus in I Claudius and Karla in Tinker Tailor. Even as he is brilliant at playing villains in his acting work, he is such a nice gentleman in real life.
Stewart played Claudius in the BBC (Jacoby) Hamlet. Eric Porter was Polonius. I have to say that his Horatio wig was far more natural looking than the silly thing he wore as Claudius. His best look in the same role was probably the RSC movie with David Tennant, though that was obviously modern dress and not period.
It blows my mind that there was a time in life that men actually talked like this to one another. I say thou words burns away at me like the hot sun on my head as though it may be fried wastefully within a bad dosed hookah.
Things change slowly. Even before early-modern English during Shakespearian times, the older English was also slightly different. In a few centuries or even a few millennia from now, our way of speaking, English or otherwise (Chinese, Spanish, etc), will slowly change again to the point that our great grand descendants will also be intrigued why we in the 19th-20th-21st centuries speak the way we do. 02/14/24
Don't recall ever seeing this before. I like the performances. Very good resolution: it looks as if it could have been filmed yesterday, apart from the hair!
Since this was made before I was born, im now seeing this for the first time and it totally feels like Patrick Stewart was not that good of an actor back then. He's facial expressions are a bit funny. He is half smiling from time to time, and the way he says his lines sounds pretty rehearsed 😂. I'm glad that he has grown so much and became an amazing actor
Watch the Derek Jacobi Hamlet for Stewart in a remarkable curly wig and playing Claudius, the same part he played without the wig in the later David Tennant version.
Thanks to Mystery Science Theater 3000, I have memorised this whole scene. In fact, most of Hamlet, if I'm being honest. Funny how knowledge can come from the most unlikely places.
This actually helps make Shakespeare “make sense” to me, I never understood the context of the “alas poor Yorick...” line despite how often it appears in pop culture. But can someone explain the “get thee to my lady’s chambers” part onward?
It's an argument that vanity is pointless. That no matter what you do to make yourself look attractive, in the end you're going to be nothing more than a collection of bones decaying in the grave. Also an ironic statement, as it essentially references Ophelia, who, unbeknownst to Hamlet, who has just returned, is who the grave is being dug for.
He reflects on the falseness of women, as he sees them, in that however much they may plaster their faces with makeup they will all end up like this skull, and they could learn a lesson from Yorick.
@@TheBigMclargehuge i always found it to be rather moving and reflective; death inspires some interesting thoughts when people don’t ignore its inevitability. Of course, meaning in life comes not from wallowing in pity over that inevitability, but embracing it and making the most of their mortal time on the earth. A little bit of nihilism contextualizes the meaning we can have in our lives and makes it all the more important. Unfortunately people do like to wallow in it just for the sake of being edgy
@@TheBigMclargehugeyou can accept Hamlet's sentiment or not, but I wouldn't consider it "brain dead". In the context of the play it makes some sense - Hamlet has been brooding on mortality since the death of his father. I think these are thoughts that many could identify with at some point in life. Part of Shakespeare's genius is that he identified and conveyed complex human thoughts and emotions that we can still recognize today.
When Roddenberry conceived Star Trek, much of the stories were inspired by the works of Shakespeare. In fact many episodes were rewritten from his plays. Who better to replace Kirk than Sir Patrick.
Wow! So the mock ups of Captain Picard , with hair , supposedly from when he was young are actually pretty accurate . Far from looking like a dodgy toupee or hair piece stuck on his balled dome! And on top of that the late great Iain Richardson likewise with colour in his hair! I’ve never actually seen this famous scene performed right through like this. It makes me want to see the whole play live on stage, although I’m unlikely to see it with two thespian gods in the full power of their youth like this now.
Believe it or not, this is also a toupee. Patrick Stewart said he lost his hair over the span of one year when he was 19 years old. He was 29 in this video, so he’d almost certainly have his “Captain Picard” hairline at this point.
Come on: there are scenes where Hamlet should be introverted and the Yorick scene is definitely one of them: in a few minutes they'll arrive with Ophelia's coffin and he'll be ranting and declaiming again.
This should be called "Ian Richardson Performs Shakespeare in 1969 While Patrick Stewart Watches."
Lol true
You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment (House of Cards reference).
Exactly. Pat Stewart didn't say anything

"You might well think that. I couldn't possibly comment."
He's TWENTY NINE in this video?! Patrick Stewart decided to become 55 as fast as he could, then stay looking that way into his 80s.
Looked more than 47 when did Picard.
@@philipmcdonagh1094 well you seem to be informed rather than having a instinctive constitution
Some people age to quickly :(
Concurred. Was likely early 30s in this
Dude, he was wearing a wig in this, he was bald in his 20's. He decided to not wear a wig, unlike the guy who played Kirk.
Wow! I was only here to gawk at Patrick Stewart with hair, but this is the first time I really felt like I understood Shakespeare. That hit me hard!!! Thanks Ian Richardson, whoever you are!
Stuart was almost completely bald by this age, and had to wear a hairpiece

He died when he was only 55.

NOT true!
The original Enterprise had a primitive 'holodeck' a century before.
It was featured in an animated episode.

yes, his name was Ronald Lacey
I see it now.
I mean, RotLA is max pop-culture...
He also was Himmler in "The Last Crusade"
Thank you for pointing this out. His EYES looked familiar to me but I couldn't quite place him. You saved me from HOURS of mind exploitation in placing those eyes.
This clip has way too little Stewart to be titled Stewart.
what you on about
True that. And hh, did you even watch the clip LOL
Patrick Stewart looked and sounded like Patrick Stewart even in 1969. Incredible
That's not Patrick Stewart! That man has hair!
No, It's Roger Federer
Florin F 😲😲😲Whoa!!! Being both a Stewart and and Federer fan for years, I never saw it...but you're absolutely right!!!
Holographic hair
R.F. Switch actually, he didn't. He lost his hair at 19 and wore hair pieces to perform.
@@beccajanestclair so he went bald early that suck. I seen men that went bald in their mid 20's but never in thier teens.
Solid interpretation: three remarkable actors and the sound and photography is excellent for television of the period.
Chazbot q
Probably movie film and a really good transfer.
Its from the monumental tv series of 68, Civilisation with Kenneth Clarke.
The reason they made the series is because they realized TV technology, particularly in colour, had become advanced enough to really do the art history of Europe justice.

Patrick Stewart doing hardly any Shakespeare at all in 1969
It wasn't even 69, it was 68, this was part of Civilisation with Kenneth Clarke. Might be the last episode in that monumental series.
There haven't been many many series of that caliber. One of my favorites was Ascent of Man by Jacob Bronowski. Ever see that one!
It's called minimalist acting. Focus on the words he doesn't say.
All I can say is that I am 29 right now and Patrick Stewart and Shakespeare have guided me to never give up and always be myself
He looks like a Romulan in that outfit and with hair. lol
Yes, if he had pointy ears this could be him working undercover on Romulus for Section 31 in his 20s
1:32 even the skull's mind is blown by that revelation
Lmao
Ian Richardson was amazing as Prime Minister in the original House of Cards.
God he was so good. The way he played Francis so sly was awesome.
That is what I know him from! Was aired in Netherlands, he played the male Thatcher, despicable political character.
The always-superb Ian Richardson. I wonder whether Shakespeare sensed that he was writing for generations of fine actors like Richardson.
I'd recommend the original 'House of Cards' with Ian Richardson (Hamlet here) playing the lead role, to anyone who enjoyed the Netflix US version and not seen the UK original.

Just struck me that I know Richardson only as the character of Francis Urquehart. His face was looked familiar.

This video is all about Ian Richardson's performance. Nothing else, except for the poetry of the Bard.
It's so weird seeing Ian Richardson so young
Same . I only knew him in grey hair.
Patrick Stewart AND Ian Richardson in one Clip? Made my Day!

Melty Nazi....I love how technical you get....
Ronald Lacey was the name of the actor who placed Toht in "Raiders".
"Melty Nazi from Raiders of the Lost Ark" haha! :D And there I was thinking "Slim Pickens" :-)
He says '"Melty Nazi" and everyone knows who he means. It's like...brevity is the soul of wit...or something.
If Hamlet and Horatio had pointed ears they could be Vulcans but everyone knows that Hamlet was written by Klingons.
LOL! The Undiscovered Country, Hamlet, act 3, scene 1.
@@kjamison5951 The Klingons claimed Shakespeare the way Germans do. That was the joke.
Ah yes, you haven’t really seen Hamlet until you’ve seen it in the original Klingon.
Patrick Stewart with a full head of hair makes about much sense as a bald Wookie.
The grave digger looked very familiar then I realized it's Ronald Lacey the Major Arnold Toht from Raiders of the Lost Ark.
:o holy shit!!!
I missed that completely! He's not so creepy here...even though he is standing in -- and next to -- an open grave.
Know that I know that, I could see it in this video too. Some of his actings remembers me on Toht and there it is again, that creepy feeling. ;)
Was in Porridge too.
Good evening fraulein.
'Make it so!'
'On that, I couldn't possibly comment.'
"Alas, poor Data, I knew him well..."
Patrick Stewart with hair looks like young Steve Martin.
Haha I can see that!
I thought the same thing!
Hahaha
damm i really forgot that Patrick was even there for a moment, great acting
Ian Richardson was one of the greatest of British actors. My favorite of his was the original, and best, House of Cards.
The fact that Patrick Stewart sure doesn't look nearly 50 years older from how you see him in this is incredible. This is the better part of 2 decades before Star Trek! What, did he stop aging for a decade plus?
Thanks to all those Borg nanoprobes acquired when he was assimilated as Locutus :)
He was in Excalibur in 1981 and looked the same on Star Trek.
He was still in his twenties in this, but he already looked/sounded like he was in his forties. Kind of like how Tommy Lee Jones has looked like an old man since he was young.

Hollywood makeup, or course.
In high school, I watched a version of "Hamlet" that starred Derek Jacoby as Hamlet, and Patrick Stewart played Claudius.
Shakespeare staring at a reality too real, without flinching.
The universe contemplating its own mortality.
This looks too good. Really talented cinematographers here.
Patrick Stewart looked like that at 29 years old? Holy shit.
When I was in primary school we had a book day where you were meant to dress up as a character from a story. I spent ages making a skull out of clay to say "Alas poor Yorik I knew him well." with, but I dropped the bloody thing on the floor and it smashed into a thousand pieces :(
I would have said "And...scene!' and then acted like I meant to do that.
Good job too, as you were misquoting the text
I think it's a wig, he has said in interviews he lost all his hair at a really young age, like 18 or 19. But his face looks eerily the same. How many people can say that of themselves after 45 years ?

Bald people age more slowly because you don't see their hair go grey.

What a literal title. Patrick Stewart is in fact doing Shakespeare. "E'en so." "E'en so, my lord." Well, we all start out somewhere.
Well, reading lines of a Shakespeare play, he isn't literally "doing Shakespeare" in a sense.
The emphasis is really on Richardson. If the poster wanted to showcase Stewart there are several other scenes where Horatio is a lot more prominent.
So this is what Captain Picard did while on the holodeck.
Thats the wonderful Ronald Lacy!, wow he looks young here but as always he is amazing
"YOU might think that - I couldn't possibly comment!!"
