Adam Driver delivered a brilliant 16 stanza monologue poem as Maurizio Gucci in the Ridley Scott film “House Of Gucci”.
In this poem, Maurizio is explaining to potential investors what a fashion brand should stand for and his vision of the future of Gucci.
This monologue poem is written a bit differently than others I’ve featured on this blog. This poem is written in 16 couplet stanzas that oscillate back and forth between rhymed couplets and UNrhymed couplets. So the rhyme scheme looks like this: aa, bc, dd, ef, gg, hi, etc…
If I were to perform this monologue poem, I would speak each of the rhymed couplets by letting the first line just flow into the next. I’d speak each of the UNrhymed couplets by placing a brief pause before the 1st line, after the 1st line, and after the 2nd line. I would also speak the rhymed couplets a bit faster than the unrhymed couplets. I would also increase my tone on the final syllable of each of the rhymed lines.
