They don’t make films like this anymore

I have of late, (but wherefore I know not) lost all my mirth,; and indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition; that this goodly frame the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy the air, look you, this brave o'er hanging firmament, this majestical roof, fretted with golden fire: why, it appeareth no other thing to me, than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours. What a piece of work is a man, How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty, how like an Angel, In apprehension how like a god, The beauty of the world, The paragon of animals. And yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me; no, nor Woman neither;

Those wolves got the best performance of Hamlet ever done ❤😂

The best “Dr Who” we never had.

I'm glad he didn't recite anything from the Scottish play What? Macbeth! AHHH!!! HOT POTATO, ORCHESTRA STALLS, PUCK WILL MAKE AMENDS!

Just the best ever and moving rendition of this soliloquy I have seen

I love cinema . Ive seen many movies and shows. I like to think i have good taste. This scene is in my top 5 for sure.

Nihilism 1:Wolves 0

I am dying from liver failure. Homeless thanks to my brother and the only people who ever cared about me my grandparents and mam and dad are long gone. Oh and one other, my beautiful partner who passed three weeks ago to the day. She was such a caring soul. I don't believe believe a God or afterlife but at least soon I will join them all in eternity. I just hope the Quantum Theory of Immortality is wrong. That truly is horrific 😢

Fuckin Beautiful Baby, couldn't be more relevant tha Today now...🙏👁🌏🌀🍻 Chin chin...

what a beautiful piece of work is it

The older I get, the more I think about this scene.

Fuck me ....when you have a hearts desire that seemingly fills your life as it appears to be that way ....and it doesn't go 'that' way .....then you quote this ..,..and think fuck it all...am better off on my own ......with my own company and faults.xx

Life. Some people are far too sensitive for this cesspool of a world. ☹️

It's one of those films that you don't want to end, always find it difficult viewing when they get back to London. You want them up in Monty's cottage longer. On a feast of roast meals, fine wines, cards and sexual burglary!

richard e grant is absolutely perfect in this movie

This is the scene where you realise Withnail is the true talent but too flawed and not the zeitgeist of the moment.

Oh, GOD I need another drink

The director said I is a victim in the beginning and middle but withnail is a victim in the end

I love this film but it makes me think. Speak your truth. Xx

Makes me cry everytime. Shakespeare's words and the film.

What a closing delivery. Perhaps, one of the most unheralded ever.

I was shown this movie when i was 16. Although i enjoyed it, it was mostly lost on me until i lived it a little (being skint in bedsit land and living with someone who left this grandiose lifestyle for the heights of being an eternal student [to this day] in some craphole uni in Northern Wales) unfortunately, i was from a poor background unlike the characters played in the film. But the film became slightly relatable,

Shakespeare. Work shows promise. Should try harder. See me outside my study for a few things you could improve.

Richard Grant was built different. One of the most greatest actors to ever grace the screen and stage.

Worse when you think what he's walking back to. The previous scene had them learn they're about to be evicted. He refused all roles offered to him and he's helplessly addicted. Soon he'll be homeless, without a friend or hope in the world

I absolutely love that the end of the film is foreshadowed by Uncle Monty's speech to both of them: "It's the most devastating moment in a young mans life, when he quite reasonably says to himself, "I shall never play The Dane!" It is at that moment that all ambition ceases to exist." And here is Withnail playing the Dane, but to an indifferent pack of wolves on a miserable day

In my opinion this is one of the saddest movies ever made not because it is showing despair not because it is about despair but because the characters are despairing. It's a comedy at least allegedly, but you see that desperation bubble 4th as a reason to every action and interaction. A series of unwhole people Trying their best backed up against a ledge And it is only here at the end when our lead dramatist is alone that the movie says the quiet part almost out loud, Plain enough for anyone who has lived there to see it and for anyone who has not to hear it

I've never seen his delivery of this scene bettered. The perfect end to a perfect movie.

“[The wolves are unimpressed. Withnail exits into the rain.]” - last stage directions in the Withnail & I screenplay Heartbreakingly beautiful.

This is the best film ever made. No competition.

I've only just noticed, but isn't there a verse missing? The third verse should be "forgone all custom of exercises". Still, one of the best films ever and also probably one of the best deliveries... So good, I only just realised that line was missing, yet everytime I remembered this scene it was there!

My thoughts on this (and they are only mine) is that he was absolutely in love with “I” and he is now heartbroken. I feel that the repetition at the end of the soliloquy “nor WOMAN neither” confirms this point. This is cinema at its very best 😢

some of the lines from the speech are missed, such "forgone all custom of excersies" and "i action how like and angel, in apprehension how like a god" anways was really good

When the rain washes you clean you'll know...

me watching Withnel and I: haha uncle durnsly got the gay Me at the end: feels

Perfect film, and a perfect performance from Richard E Grant!!!!

I know it’s out of context, but no actor except R.E. Grant has moved me to tears with this soliloquy before. Perfect meshing of story, mis-en-scene and acting. Timeless. Someone asked me recently for my favorite final movie scene and I said: Bob Hoskins as Harold Shand in the limo in “The Long Good Friday.” But today I thought of Grant in “Withnail,” and I watched it again, and here we are. Goddammit, sometimes I think I wanna top myself-no joke-but it’s the chance to watch primal, vital art like this again that pulls me back. “Life has meaning despite your momentary misery” is the message that gets through to me.

What a fantastic movie, probably my favorite ever.

Sublime. (Great Film).

I love this scene for so many reasons. The melancholy, the anger and frustration at being left behind, and the fact that I assume Robinson got Grant to mess up the lines, just as a drunk Withnail probably would have.

My teacher told me to be more Shakespeareang so i showed her this

I'd love to know what Wuthnail's childhood was like, how did he turn out so badly. It's so sad but I suppose we don't know how many people fall through the cracks.

breaks my heart

Quintessence of dust!

The UK give us the BEST in arts Thanks for that. Regards from Chile

FUCK NOOM!!!!!!!

The repeating of the line 'nor women neither' and the smile and bow he gives the wolves is fucking heart wrenching.

Always brings me to tears. (49 year old man) he is lonely, depressed and desperate for love.

One of the most poignant endings ever. So very sad because you can’t help thinking that his time will very shortly be up.
