Peter Cook & Dudley Moore - the "One-Legged Tarzan" sketch - '89

So simple yet so funny

Judi Dench | The Owl and the Pussy-cat by Edward Lear

“Orginally a nursery rhyme for toddlers. But recited so eloquently as classical literature. Brilliant.”

The Owl and the Pussy-Cat

BY EDWARD LEAR




I

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea

In a beautiful pea-green boat,

They took some honey, and plenty of money,

Wrapped up in a five-pound note.

The Owl looked up to the stars above,

And sang to a small guitar,

"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,

What a beautiful Pussy you are,

You are,

You are!

What a beautiful Pussy you are!"




II

Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!

How charmingly sweet you sing!

O let us be married! too long we have tarried:

But what shall we do for a ring?"

They sailed away, for a year and a day,

To the land where the Bong-Tree grows

And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood

With a ring at the end of his nose,

His nose,

His nose,

With a ring at the end of his nose.




III

"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling

Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will."

So they took it away, and were married next day

By the Turkey who lives on the hill.

They dined on mince, and slices of quince,

Which they ate with a runcible spoon;

And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,

They danced by the light of the moon,

The moon,

The moon,

They danced by the light of the moon.

"According to Henry in another interview, he used the memory of a long lost dog to summon up those emotions for his audition." 

 "It makes you think that there's always some "truth" to every acting. "

O sentido do Natal

 Revejo esta história de Natal  admirada, divertida e encantada com a simplicidade, pureza e humor da encenação e da representação. O que estas crianças conseguem, exprimir o sentido do Natal, não é fácil nestes tempos de artificialidade sufocante ( Uff!!).
 Brilhante! 
 É o postal de Boas Festas que gostaria de pendurar nas árvores de todos aqueles que visitam este blogue. Desejo- lhes um BOM NATAL e espero que entrem com o pé (possível) direito em 2013.
