So much easier to think about and review something like this because every facial expression, every inflection, every choice is so clear. There is nothing as impressive to me as a long monologue. Andrew Scott is the best at reacting in general, but when he is giving a monologue and is reacting in real time to the words out of his own mouth, it blows me away. Watch the video of him performing Hamlet. If he isn’t the greatest living actor, and he isn’t the greatest working actor, he is at least the best actor under 50.
