Geez I love these speeches Sharpe gives. Sean Bean has amazingly direct eyes and uses them to perfection when eyeballing each soldier or officer he addresses. The meter of his dialogue is always punctuated perfectly to accentuate his emotion or lack of. This series may represent an awful class system and futility of frontline soldiering but it is beautiful and grim all at once. I wish they'd had a bigger budget. As with 'Hornblower', the costs of sets, props, hiring period specific locations and shooting in certain countries...along with insuring such a large cast is prohibitive. Bloody good soldiering though. Loved every minute. Harris, Hagman and Harper are such brilliant compliments to the leading player. Bean owns this series and rightly so. Playing the titular role must be been a great weight on his shoulders bit I've rarely seen an actor embody a character as well as in this monumental period piece. All involved should be rightly chuffed.
And Bean wasn't even supposed to be in the show. Paul McGann had been cast as Sharpe but broke his leg shortly before filming, Bean was brought in as a replacement. McGann of course went on to play a very good second string in Hornblower under Ioan Gruffudd.
The more of these clips I watch the more impressed I become with Sean Bean's portrayal of Sharpe. (And I was sold in practically the first minute anyway.) In this speech here he does an excellent job of making Sharpe an intelligent, articulate and inspirational leader while never letting anyone - including the viewer - forget he's a gutter bastard from the ranks who can handle anything and anyone.
You're not the only one. The author of the novels, Bernard Cornell, liked Bean's performance so much he began to tailor the character to be more like Bean, downplaying the character's initial black hair, and altering his origins to Yorkshire to match Bean's accent.
@@karazor-el6085 Exactly. I always think there can be no higher compliment than for the actual creator of the character to recognise the actor's contribution in such a way.
@@angelbangtana9885He has a fear of flying. It's why he was out of breath in Fellowship of the Ring, because he walked everywhere he could. *Everywhere, across Islands in New Zealand.*
He dropped the aristocratic pretense for a moment and used some lower class grammar when he said "as me guest!" That's what pierced Sharpe's suspicions, nice touch!
Kiely is such an interesting character. very proud and foppish, seems a fool. But then he shows himself a genuinely good combatant and recognises Sharpe's superior experience. And is so unsure of himself that he can't make love to his own wife. What a complex guy
Lord Kylie: a Toff,, but in his heart beats the same heart as Richard Sharpe. Loyal, brave, a romantic, steady and courageous. Like the way this is shown - how these qualities of man are unrelated to position. Loving the mutual respect, despite the initial argument.
In the books his story is completely different. He never makes amends with Sharpe, becomes increasingly bitter about being denied his chance for glory, and eventually winds up killing himself shortly before the climactic battle.
Damn...Lord Kiely's a decent chap. Most "gentlemen" officer would sneer at Sharp regardless of their experience (or lack there of) but Kiely, saw Sharp for what he's worth. Chaps like that wouldn't last long in the books, I dare say.
While Lord Keily is always flashy, he does back it up with the one on one duel with the French dragoon and fights honorably. He has set aside his initial dislike of Sharpe realizing only Sharpe can get his soldiers up to scratch. Hungering for glory can be a dangerous game however.

By that time the number of Irishmen in the Spanish foreign regiments was pretty low, so their main reaction would have been "whats that gringo saying?"
Same with the "Irish" units in the French Royalist army, in their last decades at least. Even Napoleon's Irish Legion often had Germans enrolled to make up the numbers as there were not enough Irish.
this company is fictional. They would be Spanish speakers by now-O'Rourke says his father was from Galway but (before being cut off by Harper) would have been born and raised in Spain.

In the British army officer ranking system was based on one's birth, class and wealth- as well as the in cases where one could sell their rank to others and "just age into it" as older officers retired in peacetime or rapidly sold off in wartimes to extra sons of the nobility. The French were based on even older concepts of noblises entitlement but having one's kings head cut off recently tends to weaken said class divides. 1 in 20 of the officers in the Imperial French army came up from the ranks, in the British army it was almost unheard of which is why Sharpe is such a interesting character. In his early career when he (almost for real) fake defected to Tippoo Sultan in Mysore he was offered a immediate promotion, he declined, Instead Sharpe wanted to walk intro the streets of the rookey where hew grew up and no other coat would do but one they all knew and feared. I'd have taken the money. In one of his last books Col. Sharpe met Napoleon himself and was told that in his army he'd have been a Marshal and they'd have changed history.
