Video: Check out this great collection of the best monologues in film history

Good Will Hunting, Pulp Fiction and Jaws are all present and correct...

Good Will Hunting, Pulp Fiction and Jaws are all present and correct…

JOE has frequently wondered what we would be like if we pursued our undoubted acting talent and headed off to the bright lights of Hollywood. Naturally, we would start off by doing Shakespeare on stage whilst wearing tights and holding a poor Yorick’s skull in our hand, but we would soon be starring in $200m blockbusters and Oscar-winning dramas within a week.

One thing that we will insist on in every film we star in is a great monologue, because we’ve been practising our Taxi Driver “You talkin’ to me?” speech and Pulp Fiction’s Ezekiel 25:17 for years now.

This clip is the next best thing to seeing JOE on the silver screen because it features some of the most impressive monologues in film history.

Fight Club, Blade Runner, Good Will Hunting, Lord Of The Rings, Silence Of The Lambs, Apocalypse Now, The Shawshank Redemption and lots more are all on offer. Take it away folks…
