This wonderful film makes studying Shakespeare a real pleasure. Wasn't Rosalind marvellous! Why cannot more of Shakespeare's plays be as brilliant as this. The sound etc was outstanding but the sub-titles were really appreciated. Just think, this film was made 80 years' ago...the year of my birth. Thank you so much for this. I am enjoying it so much and have book-marked and will watch, and watch and watch.
The performances of Elisabeth Bergner and Laurence Oliver were outstanding! Truly an enjoyable to watch - especially since this movie was filmed in 1936!
The monologue, Seven Ages of Man, which starts at 43:00, is the best I have ever found on the Internet. In fact, all other versions are too short, too strong, or too boring!
I enjoyed watching this this video, thank you for sharing. I think watching plays and novels before reading them will be helpful for critical thinkers and critics, it gives deep analysis and clear ideas to put in consideration.
Thank you U.S department of education for funding and captioning this movie. I find it really hard to hear and make out old english. At least reading it helps out a lot along with watching it in understanding its meaning. Thanks again!
How wonderful ~ for me Olivier is simply the greatest - knew he played the part but no idea it existed on film ~ what a fantastic historical record !! Magic
Thanks so much for sharing this movie!!!!!! What a pleasure to see the extraordinary -wonderful -magical -and so deliciously handsome Laurence Olivier !!!!!! THANK YOU !!!!

I'm liking this version so far! Nice to finally have a good-looking Orlando. :^) Although it's a little distracting to have Rosalind with a French accent. I suppose that's correct since it's supposed to take place in France but since only she and one other dude so far have an accent it makes them seem a little out of place.
In Shakespeare's days 'hour' was pronounced as 'or' which is very similar to 'whore'; and therefore, in order for the audience to get the fool's pun the actor must pronounce that part as: 'from or to or we ripe and ripe.. and from or to or we rot and rot.'
Thanks for the Movie. If you like this one check out the Mid summer Night's Dream from I think 1939. Best version of that Shakespeare play like this version of As You like it. Thanks again.

I loved the performance of Rosalind. In many scenes she carries the entire scene on her arms. Her performance is exceptional.
One of my favorite versions!... the first I'd ever seen! THANK YOU for sharing!

Orlando is indeed beautiful :-)
For some reason this feels like an Xmass seasonal movie I could happily watch each December.
The look on Orlando's face at the end is priceless.

Henry Ainley who played as Exiled Duke is the father of Anthony Ainley. He is best known as The Master from Doctor Who!
