What is even more brilliant, genius, ingenious about this soliloquy featuring the great Olivier is how shadows are used on his face as he stumbles/lurches towards the camera before he begins the famous lines, Now is the Winter of Our Discontent....his eyes are black in the shadows while the harsh jutting of his determined and chiseled chin create a mask of hate and brutality or an evil demonic mold that then melts into a frosty face beginning this Winter soliloquy about the Sun of York frolicking to a nymph alongside a lute while he, aspirant Lord in the shadows, deformed and made obsolete in the absence of War and fighting, plays his piper ditty to lure, entice, destroy and loot.

"'Now is the winter of our discontent'" - Richard
III by William Shakespeare. Philip Spade. July 15, 2013.
I would have to say that this scene is one of the best acting moment I have ever witnessed on film. However, in "reality" I am perpetually surrounded by superlative actors who play every part with every nuance of skill appropriate for the elaborate "gang stalking skits" that are continuously employed surrounding MOI. They are remarkable actors, it's amazing they aren't in show biz or politics! They too are aspirants like Richard III. However, their work is intended to solidify existing monopolies and not give any upstart any more chances to play the field on any level except as pawn and broker.
-------------------
Oh, tis a wondrous bit of writing on politics and shananigans!
--------------------------------
It would appear that Olivier took some huge creative license with adapting the actual play by Shakespeare to his 2 1/2 hour movie, skipping entire passages and substituting right away his amorous plots and licentious liasons. Leaving the more insidious plot of undermining the friendly foe whose name begins with a "G" to be discovered after a series of evil plotting by the smirking evil genius protagonist. It's all very sinister but unfortunately it reminds me of the people I have had to deal with who are famous politicians and for all these years the shock of seeing Machiavelli unleashed when it comes to immediate gratification and promotion by attacking MOI in this teleportation hell that has been forced upon me. A very quick lesson in politics to be sure and I was always just going to lamely believe all the hype they put out in their scripted speeches and be happy to just turn off the boob tube once they stopped their acting on a podium but NO...i HAVE TO witness Richard III in person and the evil plots are aimed AT ME. Oh NO! But they are also a threat to the nation and national stability, which no one seems concerned about.
I have no idea how this movie ends except I think there is something about a horse and a kingdom for a horse as Richard III is killed--betrayed, perhaps, by his enemies or overtaken by his foes--I know that much but it's always the intricacies that make up the plot, and that I what I refer to. Knowing simply that this character dies does not detract from the mystery or surprise or delight in HOW and what words and what emotions and what soliloquys are uttered and most importantly, HOW it's all done by the likes of Olivier and that will be my surprise ending for this film--hopefully as impactful as the opening scene. As this is my first time viewing this play and movie---I have watched this opening scene at least 5 times and have not gotten very much past some of the beginning acts but it's a joy to watch this higher level of acting and performance so I am relishing it, but the similarities of political Machiavelli machinations is striking now that I have gotten a bit more familiar with the English accent and 400+year language barrier of that older English style--now familiar with at least this opening scene--
This is one reason why Shakespeare is considered to be, and is, peerless in his theatrical and writing style--not only is the language use and style more than superlative but the precision of exacting the truth and reality in a poetic and artistic rendering making it actually entertaining and thrilling instead of morbidly depressing is wonderful!

*As I stumbled through the hacker intrusion by malware blocking the keyboard, I must remember that most likely this post will be hacked, rewritten, partially deleted because all I have been doing is backspacing to rewrite and retype words due to keys not operating and my hands also not functioning --my brain is under attack as well as the keyboard--so obviously once more the terrorist hackers will be busy deleting and rewriting and taking commas and periods out and pasting what is left into long unreadable strings as they have been doing for almost every single post I have written for--over 8 years now without fail for every post.
---------
I am not going to post this to Facebook, usually I post on both this blog and Facebook because I have no idea if my writing is going to ever show up on either site--actually, this blog has been so blocked--I have a red warning sign on the front of this blog stating that "content has been suspended" due to a Cyber Crime Act in Thailand--which crime I have no idea I have breached as I have never written adversely about the Monarchy and that is the only breach of law I think exists in Thailand but probably there are a plethora of other restrictions. I have been writing about US politics. The sign I received about the suspended site appeared after I wrote a post about the 911 bombings in NYC. It had nothing to do with Thailand or Thai politics but somehow that was enough for someone to put this warning on my blog site---and it has not been removed since. Maybe I will post this to Facebook after all. The hacking is very bad it's very difficult to write any longer without endless strain and struggle and retyping every other word--literally.

30 minutes later:
Realizing how badly the subliminal "mind control" has operated whilst I wrote the above--I had to rewrite entire passages because various weak and watered down "tags" were input into my subconscious by the inaudible technology while I was writing. I found myself using various types of "English" watery segues to ideas such as, the English would say, "I suppose....(blah blah blah)" and the American version would be, "I guess (etc etc etc)" (!)
I do not use these types of weak intros to my ideas and I came as a surprise to find this post had been wreaked somewhat by these inclusions which came out like the porous choice of words that are spoken without any hesitation and no pre-thought in the situations where it's obvious that mind control and the use of subliminal coercion and manipulation to my speech and actions is being utilized by these nefarious technologies (which no one will admit to using and certainly government officials are loathe to let this information out to the public, for how could they obtain their plausible machinations in this modern day of information without the use of drugs and subliminal technologies to entice people into believing their inplausibility?
------------
I had to re-write, but it is clear to me that an English national or deviation of that Imperial former conquistador country is using the subliminal mind control whilst I am attempting to get past their hacker intrusions and blocks to my writing. I am literally pressing correct keys and other letters appear. The keys are now so stiff I must pound down on the keyboard as usual to get anything out.
----------------
So if my style above has a lot of embellishments that sound like I am going into guessing mode or don't "really know" but am "guessing" or "supposing" what my ideas are, in that attempt to not be offensive to the critical English mode of how only certain people are "supposed" to have definitive knowledge and the rest have to buttress their statements down with prefixes to their concepts such as, "I suppose" and, "It would seem...doesn't it?" to find agreement. AT the top levels they make outright bold statements as the one and only truth and you had better not disagree if you are not of their "station".
--------
But I continue with the English Crown theme. I want to add that the actors in question in this terror and torture scheme have no Shakespeare play upon which to base any kind of fallen nobility upon--except for one passage coming from Macbeth which rings true on the stage of actors in this terror contract out on me, and I will quote this only to include how meaningless their activities are, ignoble would be an understatement and a glorification of their inane and sodomite enterprises when it comes to this MK ULTRA rape and sex slave contract out on me and their mean and pettiness and their actions--which of course "win" them the approval of their reigning force upon this planet--and no, it isn't the United States Government, and that includes the politicians and so this theme is just and true: The English Crown rules them all like that Ring of Power in The Lord of the Rings and Sauron is only a metaphor for the entire gamut of the international force which rules the rulers.
-----
yet it is the English Crown with which I have had to contend for many years now, and their actors brazenly acting out their meager but well-funded rape, torture, attempted murder, theft and hate roles for the sake of charitable ruse for the blinding of the universal muse of art but artistry and deception is really the name of this game and it also involves acting. Translation: playing their parts as humanitarians fighting for justice, against racism, pro feminism, anti-corporate, anti-Dark Money, blah blah blah. I don't suppose this tis True, and do they deceive either me or you?
---------------
The Shakespeare set of lines (not an entire play, "mind you"--to use that English term---but just a few lines suffice to encapsulate any connection to the tragedies of grandeur that Shakespeare depicts in his plays on power and struggle to obtain. NO, these performers, musicians, actors, entertainers, directors and et al who participate only deserve this brief mention from Shakespeare but it is appropriate to the situation:
