Patrick Stewart discusses playing Enobarbus, 1973 vs 1978

- This is a chunk of archival gold from British television, circa 1979. As part of an "in-studio master class" on speaking Shakespeare, Patrick Stewart and Trevor Nunn talk about how the same role (Enobarbus in Antony & Cleopatra) was interpreted differently by Mr Stewart five years after his first crack at it.
OK, this proves my theory. Patrick Stewart has always been old.
But always a youthful, yet 'knowing' spirit behind his acting and in his general way.
Liam Neeson appeared on the Graham Norton show with Patrick Stewart and said that he did the film Excalibur with Stewart 32 years earlier and he looks *exactly* the same.
he went bald in his teens
This was when he was just 30 years old! Like...how? Lol
@@justinhackstadt6677 He would have been 38 there.
He looked 50 when he was 30 and then aged one year every ten years for the next 50 years.
Right? This is so confusing.
The strangest thing about this is Patrick Stewart was 38 years old in this 1978 video.
He was 65 back than and he is still 65. And in 10 years he will also be 65.
Yeah, his hair started greying really early. At a glance, I would’ve guessed he was at least 50.
HE'S 38 HERE?!
@@shahrzadmassiha7253 Well, it was 43 years ago.
Yes that's an ancient looking 38, he looked younger once he lost all the grey hair.
This was at a time when he was commanding the Stargazer :)
Yes 🤣🤣🤣
Stoooooop! lol
I know Im asking randomly but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account??

@Gannon Alex I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Patrick Stewart is one of the most influential actors I've ever seen on TV or film.
The way Patrick talks is just so interesting and fun. I love him in Star Trek!
Taieri Gorge, NZ. Pat Stewarts home city.
Many comments say he looks old, but he does not. He just is some who grays prematurely and became bold early in life, --- his skin and eyes look really young and fresh... Even younger than many other 38 year olds... Imagine him with black hair and not bold...
, you're exactly right.
Fair number of wrinkles. That's not young looking for 39, even if you pretended he wasn't gray and bald.
"Patrick, how would you describe Enobarbus?"
"Well, he just kept taalking, in one unbroken sentence, moving from topic to topic...."
... so that no one could interrupt him it was really quite HYPNOTIC.

...ba-ba-ba-baaaaa
@@psecdocumentary This discourse has me considering a gin and tonic. Wait we're doing the Vessek thing from Princess Bride, right?
Bizarre to think he looked like that in his 30s.
Boredman567
He was born middle aged...so now in his late 70s...he still looks 50 ha
Well he was like almost 40 here too
not only his 30s, but his early 30s... 33ish
Not only did he go bald young he went grey young. If I saw him back in 1973 I would never believe he was 3 years younger than me. I guess he's just one of those people who aged fast
@@monkeynt5780 33 in the first performance, 38 during the interview
It's like Patrick Stewart has always been the same age. He picked an age that really worked or him and just stayed there, unlike us mere mortals.
This is a great way to put it. It helped my confusion about his looks.
Shaving his head made him glow up and look way younger.
I can't believe he's 38 in this interview looking like a disheveled 60 year old. But in recent years he's a handsome, youthful looking older gentleman
Lovely! A national treasure. He'll always be Lucius Sejanus to me. Young Star Trek fans mustn't worry overmuch -- we all looked rather odd in those days. Nice to be reminded of Trevor Nunn's BBC days too.
One viewing of this video and I decided to become an actress - no joke. It changed my life for the better. I've had the opportunity to meet him once and got to thank him - he's just as lovely in person as you imagine. :)
i hope these years have been successful, and if not, i wish you great success & happiness in the years ahead
So? How'd you do?
The way he breaks down and describes the delivery and overall story he’s telling with the monologue is really beautiful.
Patrick Stewart is a man who aged backwards.
no he didn't
@@cesarzpontu8886 thanks for really clearing that up for me
@@Sylar-451 no problem
@@cesarzpontu8886 😆😆 💩💩 have a nice day
@@cesarzpontu8886 Pretty sure he did.
Sir Leondegrance looks younger than this character.
Captain Picard looks younger than Leondegrance....
Patrick, a old soul even then.
"The poop was beaten gold". I want that as my epitaph.
Thanks for posting this. I have seen photos of Patrick Stewart's work in the Royal Shakespeare Company in the70's but never thought of see a clip of him during this era.
Patrick Stewart voice is beautiful
The scathingly pejorative tone in which he utters the word "intellectual" betrays how deep Enobarbus had got into him.. it's beautiful..
Sir Patrick is grizzly Adams everywhere except for his head. Interesting to see this footage. He seems more animated and even more passionate at this point
Patrick Stewart has looked like he's 60 years old from the day he was born and will continue to do so until the day he dies.
U should eat barbs that may suit ur true heart. Say what will of ones regret unto more familiar fields. Leave green and tended alone to be those shine to far neighbors living gaze. Fool.
The beard really suits him. He looks badass. He would be a great villain!
Check him out in the movie Gunmen starring Mario Van Peebles , , , and also check him out in movie Masterminds , , , ,an no not the animated one , , , , Patrick Stewart is very comfortable as a villain in both of these films. , , ,😸👍
Thanks for the recommendations :)@@wyldelf2685

One of my favorite lines of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Data, you're here to learn about the human condition, and there is NO BETTER way to do that than by embracing Shakespeare!" From the cold open of "The Defector"
Watching an interview with him about his final role in Picard.
He said he agreed to reprise the role with the understanding his iconic, beloved character has greatly changed over the years.
I love that he still holds to the concepts he mentioned here in 1979 even as a sci-fi space captain.
He is having early stage dementia and Kurtzman and co. took advantage of him by stuffing Zionist, anti-White propaganda into his mouth. Elder abuse.
You know, we are all saying Pat Stew was always old...but check out the energy and focus when he starts to speak, and especially at the 5:00 mark. There is such a fresh and youthful excitement that belays the graying, balding head and salt/pepper beard. Also: Pat Stew always had a really lovely complexion but even in this non flattering lighting he has a glowing, perfect complexion.
This is priceless! Thank you for posting! His accent is much stronger then. He is an amazing actor! He ages so well!
So great to listen to an intelligent well-read articulate guy like Sir Pat
He is 38-39 in this video - holy fuck.
WOW. He has totally different mannerisms. It's amazing to see the difference of him then and now.
He was very much in "theatre" mode here, I think.
Brilliant! Right, this really is Education - in how to read and appreciate Shakespeare! More please!!!
I didn't knew Al Pacino worked as an interviewer
Is that him!? 😂
Fantastic, this series is an absolute must for theater students
What a great find. Thanks for posting this.
Sir Pat is such a luvvie!
Yeah, it's an important speech, that one could easily think of only as stand-alone poetry. Stewart takes his role seriously, as one giving direction to the subsequent developments, and interpretations of them.
Is Patrick Stewart a vampire? In 2015 he looks younger than he did in 1979!
+Sloth from The Goonies He looks the same as he did as in 1973 XD
Hey youuuuu guuyyyyys
@wcorsc "I don't always drink Romulan Ale...but when I do, I prefer Dos Equus."
Dude was 39 here, and yet he looks older than he is now, at almost 80. Crazy how much hair changes your appearance.
Priceless! Thank you!
Wow. I'm playing Enobarbus and just happened to come across this searching him. I never anticipated being called back in for Enobarbus, thinking I am too young for the character. So it's....interesting.....to see Mr. Stewart played him at basically the same time of life.
The points he makes about ultimately talking about acting/feeling the text and there not being ONE way into playing Shakespeare (or anything)....all the real deal; very much so.
Many thanks for posting, klizuck.
To think, this was but a mere 15 years before the last time he would sit in the captain's chair on the Enterprise D. 15 years used to feel like a long time, but that was before I was older than he is here.
I can't believe that is Captain Picard. He looks older hear than in that episode where the probe transports him to an alternate reality and he lives and entire lifetime in 25 minutes.
This was done eight years prior to him starting his roll as Picard as well. As Spock would say...Fascinating.
That was my favorite episode - the flute
Inner light
That was also Patrick Stewart's fave episode.
Ok seriously I’m done with the age joke. He obviously DOES NOT look older than Inner Light. You can tell by the condition of his face that’s he’s young here. Don’t pay attention to the baldness it’s misleading
Moving from topic to topic quiet hypnotic
So he looks almost the same on five different decades. Grey and bald already in the 1970s
1:37 Captain Picard talks about beating the golden poop out of you.
I think that the verse is about the poop deck on a royal barge.
He was 39 in this video. I´m this old now. But he looks like my grandfather.
Yeah I truly can't imagine an elder millennial born around 1981-83 looking like this now lol
Patrick Stewart's birthdays
1971 - 75
1981 - 76
1991 - 77
2001 - 78
2011 - 79
2021 - 80
Reminds me of the episode "inner Light"
The character is Gnaeus Domitius (Ah)enobarbus, the great-grandfather of Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, who took his maternal great-uncle’s name when he was adopted into the line of succession as Nero Claudius Caesar. The last three members of the Julio-Claudian Dynasty, Gaius (Caligula), Claudius and Nero were all descendants of Mark Antony and his first wife, Octavius’ (Augustus’) sister, Octavia, in a bit of historical irony.
He looks NOTHING like James McAvoy. What gives.
Thank you Sir Stewart for showing us how a real captain runs a starship.
Boy that Richard Hammond knows more about theatre than you'd expect for a car guy
I like him, the way he was then. This is the first time, I listen to him, when he was much younger. I think, he has changed a lot into very self-confident, meanwhile. He then was only an actor, talking about acting. Anyhow there has been more innocence in all of it.
Of course I still like him very much, but he has lost something. I guess, he had more doubts then. Doubts are needed if you want to be a really good one.
We all change as we grow older. But you are right: despite the greying hair and the bald pate Pat Stew in this clip is still a very eager and very passionate stage actor , still in his 30s, still has questions. He lost some of his doubts in acting and became a TV and Movie star- but that happens to many people who become successful.
This has to be one of the most best comments on youtube... i just laughed my head off!
I think we must have watched the 1979 version when I was in school. Had Joseph Marcell from The Fresh Prince as Eros.
his voice is different now- thank GOd!
Sir Patrick Stewart as a younger man and still in his Prime
The first clip, I was waiting for a "make it so".
The first half of his career was intellectually satisfying. The second half, lucrative.
he reminds me of elrond. he looks so old and so young at the same time
"What alarms ME most" is the fact that Sir Patrick Stewart has that much hair O_o
Sir Patrick going for the British Shel Silverstein look. I wanna see the lost movie where he played that kind of character in 1979.
He looked 70 in his 30s and now looks 30 in his 70s
?
no he doesn't
that would imply he actually ages.... more truthful to say he looked 50 in his 30s and still looks 50 in his 70s.....
Always the cutest of Borg
1979? So he was born 1940, so he's 39 here?! I'm 39. Wow.
The man is a legend
"There was a transformation on that river" :3
4:18 "Will, what is different about it now?"
Watching Picard season 2. It’d be fun to show 1978 Sir Patrick what he’s up to in 2024. I wonder what he’d think of Locutus of Borg?
Patrick Stewart is a god amongst men.
classy talent
He aged rather quickly but stopped. I am his age in this video but I still get mistaken for being younger. Perhaps because I am Japanese which helps me to be.
When the Captain was going through his Jimmy Buffet phase
So this is the young Patrick Stewart.
It's amazing what the Holodeck can do. It gave him his hair back. Not that in the 24th anyone would care.
Love the Larry David hair do.
if he had shaved his head but kept the beard he would look super badass
MatthewDDS He'll be the one who knocks.
You're goddamn right.
A true Mirror-Verse Picard
"Make it SO"!
"ENGAGE!!"
I’m in love.
He looks older here than he does now O.o He found the fountain of youth!
Striking how different his body language and bearing is here. Very much still in Shakespearian theatre actor mode.
Patrick Stewart hasn't changed in over 30 years.
i have never seen him speak so animated
MAJESTIC BEARD
He looked a bit like Worf!
This man ages backwards! Can't believe he's 39 in this.
That beard and hair... I think I am in love.
He never shouldve come back in the Picard Show, Is rather remember him like this
From about 6:00 you get Captain Picard's delivery if you play it at 0.75x speed.
This was during the days he was cmding the Stargazer.
I was very impressed by Pacino’s portrayal of Trevor Nunn.
Even when he was 18 he looked much older
Picard was born 44 years old
00:59 until we see Patrick Stewart for the first time, and we see him with a look on his face that says "how long is this windbag going to take to get to the friggin question?!"
wow
Wow
🙏🏼🌸🧚♀️🍃
💯🎁🕉👌🏼
hahahaha you made me LOL x)
Is this interview the basis of Fry and Laurie's skit about if English is CaPaBle, yes, CaPaBle, of supporting Hitlarian styles?
Can you imagine Captain Picard with this scruffy look? Badass.
