TOP PICK Actor

 

The revered John Barrymore

 

 

John Barrymore Performs Shakespeare (1929)

 


Watch John Barrymore, the great Shakespearean Actor as he delivers a soliloquy from henry vi, iii.

This is deemed by many to be the best shakespearean performance captured on film by far.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920)

Watch the legendary John Barrymore (Drew Barrymore's grandfather) as Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll.

 

 

Deservedly famous, the first transformation scene achieves its power solely with Barrymore's expressive features.

America is the country where you buy a lifetime supply of aspirin for one dollar and use it up in two weeks.

Love is the delightful interval between meeting a beautiful girl and discovering that she looks like a haddock.

Die? I should say not, dear fellow. No Barrymore would allow such a conventional thing to happen to him.
