“Firstly, you don’t have to
Do ANYTHING for me....”
Well, that’s not True --
let me quote Al Pacino :
But, you know, I think for an audience,
it is a wonderful thing to hear words,
especially in verse and especially Oscar Wilde's words.
It's like you can close your eyes, like when you're at a concert you become mesmerised with The Music.
Well, here you can become entranced by the words.
You see, it's the magic of the words that eventually get you to the feeling.
You were wonderful.
I love Oscar Wilde.
I feel as though I know him.
I would've loved him. I love him.
Because of the civility in him, his civility, his... his fragile power.
You know, you feel a debt to The Writers of The World,
you feel a debt especially if you are anybody, of course,
but an actor and a playwright...
Oh, man, that is a marriage,
that is a relationship that is so spectacular and special.
I know Shakespeare had it with his actors.
You sort of lock souls and you communicate in this way.
You are...
..half of each other.
What is it about Oscar Wilde that makes us want to know more about him?
Gore Vidal :
He just wasn't around long enough.
That candle went out and it was put out.
