a radio adaption of Geothe's Faust
Simon Callow plays Faust, Ronald Pickup plays Mephistopheles and Angharad Rees plays Gretchen, in both parts of Johann Wolfgang von Geothe's Magnum Opus.
The medieval folk legend of Simon Magus, who makes a pact with the devil, forms the basis of Goethe's tragedy. Disenchanted with the limitations of his academic knowledge, Dr. Faust decides to study the arts of magic and to master the supernatural. Mephistopheles appears and offers Faust renewed youth and the power to experience the reality and the mystery of life and all the human suffering it will involve. Faust signs an agreement with the devil, but his soul will only be forfeited if ever his restless spirit is satisfied and content.
Louis Macneice with E.L. Stail translated this version and it was adapted for radio in by Anthony Vivis. Goethe originally wrote this story in two parts, the first in 1808 and the second in 1831, with various revisions in between.
These radio plays were first First broadcast on R3 in 1982.

Superb thought provoking. Thank you for posting.
It is very sad to see this series getting an airing again. Don Cupitt like many ‘intellectuals’ is always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth. Virtually everything he asserts in the Sea of Faith series is a product of his own lostness and inability to see himself as he really is before the Creator God. He tries to awe us by stating our smallness vis a vis the vastness of the Universe but cannot see that his so-called intellectual philosophising springs from a sinful and unbelieving heart! He tries to sell us a ‘Religion’ that is not based on historical facts. But religion is not Christianity, that is the big mistake that people like Don Cupitt and others like him make. Roman Catholicism is not Christianity, Anglicanism is not Christianity. Christianity is something quite different and ‘other’ from these denominations, and many like them. Now there are many true Christians within these expressions, but being a member of any one of these, being baptised, or even have a ministry within these (like Don Cupitt), does not make or guarantee that the person is a true Christian. In his series he asserts - and expects us just to believe him, that the Bible “has now been completely demolished as an historical work”, when in fact his view just springs from an unbelieving heart and as he freely admits ‘years of mental turmoil’. Not a good basis I would say to take his words as authoritative and true! He then goes on to assert certain facts about modern medicine and the Covid epidemic versus the Christian faith that are simply not true. Indeed the Christian faith is the only basis for science and modern medicine. As I say, he is a sad old man who has made no advance it seems other than to arrive at an ‘approximately final position’ where he views himself now as ‘incurably religious’, not a position recommended for anyone! The Bible has not just been assailed in ‘these modern times’ as he tries to kid us, but the Bible and the true Christian faith has been attacked from the beginning - and it is still here, and thriving. No, all his ideas come from a sinful heart of unbelief and rejection of the true revelation of God, and it is very sad, and the consequences for him and others who follow his lead are devastating!
not exactly true, he was a proto Nazi. He defiantly believed in a Darwinian style, battle of the fittest race. His whole mantra was set around that idea... No God. Only Nature and the Self. who wins? The Uber mensch.

This should have been a television advertisement for Falstaff beer, if they had also brewed sherry - missed opportunity here!
John Ford was faced with a problem when making this film. Where could he find "miners" in California who could sing the traditional Welsh hymns? Britain was at war, WWII, so he couldn't recruit singing extras from Wales. And then someone remembered the Welsh church in Los Angeles! Most of the men singing are from the Los Angeles Welsh church choir.
what is that walking cane he sits on?
It's some sort of "shooting stick" type thing. i.e. a walking cane that you can sit on.
No matter the key, the singing isn't beautiful.
Falstaff was indeed very demure, very mindfull
SACK
Great film, great welsh singing.
Very wise words, I will heed them and drive to the liquor store right now

"There's never none of these demure boys comes to any proof, for thin drink doth so over-cool their blood" Not very mindful. Not very demure.
All done in one continuous take. Brilliant!
Ever heard about theatre? Actors have to stay on stage, sometimes for hours, and can't redo takes! And they have to do it every day! Being able to act isn't that impressive. I mean, it is, it's just that trained professionals do it easier than untrained youtubers would have you believe. The original Falstaff would have had to do this speech every day flawlessly, sometimes in front of royalty. Acting is hard as crap, don't get me wrong. But this isn't that impressive, it's expected from someone with an education in acting and months of rehearsals.
“It’s not a homosexual kind of thing…” 29:17. Funny how, during that era, you had to always use that caveat when talking about same sex love, so as not to ruin your career or be seen as queer.

It's strange, but I find this does sound more like the prayer it was intended to be, rather than the other key, which sounded to me more like somber reflection. I love both though.

Rather bewildered by this translation. Not just that it seems completely different from the one I grew up with, but the words don’t scan with the music. How has, ‘Bread of heaven’ become the clumsy ‘Hill of Calgary’ (and that is one of the less bad scans)?
Good question, though the answer is a little complicated: Over the years the tune Cwm Rhondda has been put to a number of different versions, in both Welsh and English, of the hymn commonly known in English as either "Guide me, O Thou great Redeemer" or "Bread of Heaven". The Welsh "Arglwydd arwain trwy'r anialwch" is a translation of the English "Bread of Heaven" which is in turn a translation of the original Welsh hymn "Gweddi am Nerth i fyned trwy anialwch y Byd" [aka Pen Calfaria]. It's this Welsh original hymn "Pen Calfaria" (that was later very freely translated into English as "Bread of Heaven" and then translated back into Welsh as "Arglwydd arwain trwy'r anialwch") that the miners are singing in this scene. So it's more a question of how Pen Calfaria (hill of Calvary) became Bread of Heaven, rather than the other way round. The English subtitles I added are a very literal translation of the Welsh; as I thought it was interesting to know what was actually being sung. This is why they don't scan. Does that make any sort of sense? The small understanding I have of this was gleaned from the "Cwm Rhondda" wikipedia page en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cwm_Rhondda If you have a look at this page it shows the different versions, and you can see how one transformed into the other.
