My favorite Shakepeare film moments

Al Pacino, explaining the meaning behind and then performing Richard III's opening speech "Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this sun of York.." Also great performances by Kevin Spacey and others, in Looking for Richard.

Kenneth Branagh exhorting his demoralized and outnumbered army to victory with the St Crispian's Day speech from Henry V.

The moment in the Kevin Kline Midsummer Night's Dream when the "rude mechanicals" are presenting their ridiculous version of Troilus and Cressida to the hysterically laughing nobles, and suddenly the actor portraying Thisbe transcends the material in the "asleep my love?" soliloquy, to move the jaded audience, and us, to tears.

Orson Welles intoning
" tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
creeps in this petty pace
to the last syllable of recorded time..." over a swirling and chaotic cloud of mist, in his 1940s Macbeth.

Ben Kingsley as the Clown at the end of Twelfth Night strolling along the bleak Cornwall cliffs and singing
A great while ago the world begun
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
But that's all one, our play is done,
And we'll strive to please you every day.

Say what you will about the actors or the particular films, these moments are pure magic.
