"Richard III" (Actors on Shakespeare S.) - Softcover

The enduring popularity and success of Shakespeare is an international and cross-cultural phenomenon. The aim of the "Actors on Shakespeare" series is to provide an accessible, contemporary commentary to each of the plays via the top-class actors who have performed them. As creator, director and star of "Looking for Richard", Al Pacino's dream of communicating his love of Shakespeare was made real. Here, he transfers his passion to the page and "Richard III", both character and play, re-emerge in a series of illuminating conversations, quotes and asides.
