ladies and gentlemen Richard Burton
you’re welcome um let’s talk about that
background of yours because it does
interest me I mean that the path you
view becomes been quite extraordinary as
I said an introduction you think that
some novelist had written in if a
novelist did write in indeed you could
accuse him with over exaggeration
because all right the background humble
comparatively so um what what in fact
did it give you though that background
Richard you think I think a tremendous
sense of strength I suppose because I
presumably if you survive such a
background you must have come from an
extraordinary race of people I’m
enormously proud of course of being
Welsh did you ever when you are when you
start embarked on a career as an actor
did you ever meet any problems in that
perhaps some of your mates might have
thought that they’ve been mixed in with
a Robin or so you know what I mean that
knock right now well they’re the self
well you well that the something Panzi
ish in in acting as compared to to to to
mining well yeah sure I’m getting that
don’t you yes I do yes I’m compromising
the last thing you can say about me is
that I’m a fancy and I’m not a but
let’s nice good let’s go back to it I do
apologize the ordinance of course for
being so intensely nervous because you
know I don’t do this kind of thing very
often and mr. Bartels and course has
done quite a lot and so me have they’re
not like the law let’s let’s get back to
to to to whales in the business of
acting um this extraordinary voice of
yours would you say that in fact it’s
it’s a kind of Welsh voice is there such
a thing oh yes it’s the deep dark answer
from the values to everybody I can’t
help
I can’t help the voice it’s a fart of me
and I didn’t cultivate or anything it
was given to me and I’m very lucky to
possess it I suppose
can we go back to 2007 you mentioned
earlier on doing time for breakfast what
is the chemical that it was a very
tragic man wasn’t he
I suppose so you saw his own death you
found it which is not entirely tragic
he certainly wrote of course most
magical things and he’s alive yes what
about one gets a sense of waste though
surely when you when you think I mean –
surely he left behind him stuff that
will live forever but he might have left
more behind him no I don’t think so I
think he’s much the same as well Mike
like you say sense of waste I wouldn’t
quarrel with that
but I think he probably burned himself
out he have fulfilled the notion a lot
of people have about the Welsh the
Celtic Sea generally about the sub death
wish that they have the creative people
do first of all except that they have
this this kind of headlong rush toward
toward the edge yes I think that we
rather love precipices we go towards
them and withdraw non again temporally
sometimes we go over the edge did you
ever feel that way yourself have you
ever felt yourself going toward the
precipice and finish back short of it
well yes I have yes I think we all do we
Kelsey and would you can tell me how in
what circumstance well there was a
second or two I think perhaps about a
year ago when I didn’t fancy much
staying alive really do you come to play
the suicide oh no
I wouldn’t kill myself in the only sense
of what I wouldn’t take pills or drugs
or anything really in that sense but I
did suddenly wake up one morning and
found how splendid lead witch and
extraordinaire world was and that I
couldn’t bear its richness and its
beauty and in order to obviate the idea
of the richness and extraordinary beauty
of the world I thought it’s best leave
it
you
