Seeing this makes everything Loki says a lot more real for me. That whole "I'm Loki of Asgard and I'm burdened with glorious purpose." thing sounds a lot more believable coming from Tom. With Chris Hemsworth the old timey language always felt weird.....Maybe it's the accent.
This is my favorite Shakespeare speech! I went to a poetry reading in college and read this speech aloud and it felt awesome! I was nervous at first, but by the end felt more confident! I’ve always loved this speech partly due to that and Hiddles reciting it here and in Henry V is fantastic!!
Thanks for posting. And BLESS YOU, Tom Hiddleston, for your brilliant delivery. I'm watching this on the most horrendous Election Day which my country has probably ever faced. We need to be roused, and surely does it. Again, THANK YOU.
Good, even very good, but not great. Hiddleston's performance lacks the desperation that's a critical element of this scene: Harry knows that he absolutely must take fortified town of Harfleur or his campaign in France will end in ignominious defeat. At this point Harry's small 8000 man army has been besieging the French held town for over a month; the British have suffered heavy losses, exhausted nearly all their supplies, most of their troops are suffering from dysentery, and Harry knows there's a massive 20,000+ man French army approaching to lift the siege. This is, literally, "do or die" time for Harry, and here he's pleading with sick and exhausted men to assault the town's walls one more time in hopes of achieving victory. Hiddleston's version comes across more as a cheery half-time pep talk: "I say, lads, let's win this one for jolly old England, what?" Again, it's not a bad rendition, but it kind of misses the mark.

DOTH MOTHER KNOW THAT YOU WEARETH HER DRAPES?!
“Shakespeare in the *PARK!”*
I'm taking a Shakespeare class and literally I've been picturing Tom as Henry the 5th the entire time
Yup, I can now too. Have you seen Kenneth Branagh's film from 1989?
Do you still have your notes about henry V? I have a philosophy oral to prepare and I'm desperate ahaha
He's filmed as Henry V in BBC.😊
He plays Hal in the hollow crown! All of the henriad
Eeeh... a little too sweet and soft. Shoulda done Saint Crispian's if he was gonna be that much of a gentleman.
I AM HARRY! OF ENGLAND! AND I AM BURDENED WITH GLORIOUS PURPOSE!
😂
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That is how it feels 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's wonderful. I like it so much when he recites a text, he puts all his soul into it.

yeah he always sounds like hes doing an impression, but i think it adds to his character and his cockyness
He brings it to life in such a way I can understand. Doesn't hurt he is gorgeous
All the women in that audience became pregnant after that... and the men too. That’s the power of the Hiddles.
I’m STILL pregnant, and I wasn’t even there.
... No wait .... that’s just pizza belly
...he's talking about killing people....wtf is wrong with literally everyone who liked this comment.
He's missing a line: "The game's afoot!" (I'm not even joking.)
Omg !!! Yes !! 😂
Oh, it happens. In the heat of delivering a performance it happens to a lot of us, even if you've done the speech a thousand times.
When does he find out that Vader is his dad?
He beat someone in a sword fight (unsharpened) three times before he did this speech. That's why he's pumped.

He was a tower of greatness in The Hollow Crown, Henry IV and V
All I hear is Loki. PUT THIS IN THE INFINITY WAT
Ying the Eevee, I think his classic background is what makes him great Loki.
Quite the unintended effect: my boxers dropped and went to quietly and politely fold themselves. This man’s hot.
This monologue got me through some of the hardest times in my life. Beautifully done by Tom ♥️
YES THOMAS!!! SAY IT, BABY!!!
Perfect reading.
The real Henry would be proud of all the top actors who played him.. Playing Henry V is a privilege!
Just love him so much! ❤❤❤❤
That was better than when he did it in the movie.
such passion ❤
I can’t. All I hear is Loki. Wtf
Not just hearing. I'm seeing him, too. In the full getup with the horns even...

he looked so happy ahhhhhh
Oooooh! That was fabulous!😁
He studied Classics at Cambridge not 'the Classics' it has nothing to do with Shakespeare! That was a weird link get what he was going for tho.
Standing ovation ❤
DARLING...your men will follow to whatever end!!!
Wow I wish he could’ve done Hamlet’s to be or not to be cause that would’ve been very helpful for English last year
Got goosebumps from it
Bravissimo.
That was fantastic.
Sherlock screamin this while shootin da walllll
What scene and act is this I need to know for school
That was excellent. Well done.
i
not anymore ;)
Zak Stephenson such a jerk much :)
Rebecca Perry Doo San you jinxed it.
Because it’s Tom freaking Hiddleston.
hehehe, I couldn't resist
This is beautiful ❤
Sherloooock
Does anyone know the music in the background
But, why is he not reciting the entire monologue? Quite a few verses have been ommitted.
WOOOO!!!!!
Omg I'm dead 💀 🙆👌😱💚
I don’t understand one word of Shakespeare but I *adore* Tom! 😃
You must be American..I know English is hard for them.
What's the name of this speech
It's known as the St. Crispian's speech from Henry V.

This is just for the live audience here. Have you seen the movie? He gets it.
@@TheaterPup Hiddleston performed this role/monologue in a movie? Which one?
Who’s Harry Englund and why should I fight for him?
The lead singer from Blink …. Huh wow
Jumped outta my skin..
That other guy has fry's hairstyle

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
ودانى وجعتنى يخربيتك.
Actually quite good
Mark you are reading off note cards....how can you say "henry the 4th?"?
😳
Good but abridged.
He did that in front of Americans...
I know Americans have no concept of history 94% of them think the earth is 6000 years old 😂
@@essexginge9167 Europeans cant name a single capital of a US state, 5 year old American kids can do this.
@@MartinMartin-bh4ke I bet you I can name more US State Capitals than the average american.
@@JimmyS.25 average huh? well thats quite a feat, it is almost like average is quite unremarkable
What a ham.
How do people just have Shakespeare memorized like that? I can't always remember song lyrics verbatim 😂
Dishonor not your mothers, and attest that those who you call fathers did beget you!
Gosh...why he's missing so many lines...? This is not good for the young people
Once again someone who's rehearsed it long enough to remember the lines but never understand the meaning of those words .
Um, of course he understands.
Too over the top.
Ben A really why did you?it was a brilliant and devoted performance
Ok...but Kenny Bragh's was perfect.
