Looking for Richard
This
movie is a labour of love for first time director Al Pacino. The film is
a simultaneous telling of Shakespeare's gripping drama and an intimate
look at the actor's process. This movie is a comic romp through the
streets of New York, on to the birthplace of Shakespeare and finally to
the beautifully realised production of RICHARD III.
This
documentary by Al Pacino takes the viewer into the heart and soul of
William Shakespeare and gives an interesting American twist on this
British phenomena. Pacino gives the view an interesting insight into our
some of the America's best actors have grasped and come to view
Shakespeare in a light-hearted way. Recommended to all those who don't
understand Shakespeare.
The
video transfer of this documentary is presented in an aspect ratio of
16:9 enhanced widescreen and is quite clear and sharp with Dolby Digital
5.1 for that great surround sound. Unfortunately no special features
were included in this DVD which is a shame. |
