rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fenjafee - This documentary about searching for Richard III in the Shakespeare play helped me a lot to get more in touch with Shakespeare. I started to love this writer. I learned some new details about Richard III and another point of view given by Al...

mvie mu-1073436: Searching for Dick in the subway

Mon, 8 Sep 2003 15:53:24 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ALawston - Richard III is a great play, even judged purely within Shakespeare’s canon. One of his greatest tragedies, and almost indisputably the finest of his historical pieces, with all sorts of quotable bits. It mutilates the actual events of Richard of Glouceste...

mvie mu-1073436: Looking for Mr. Good Bard

Tue, 26 Dec 2000 19:20:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mbfallon - "It sucks!" says one guy interviewed on the street by Al Pacino, in this documentary, "Looking for Richard." The guy is referring to Shakespeare in general, but the point is well taken that actors these days have a tough job...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author naphtalia - I missed Looking for Richard when it was in the movie theaters, so when I noticed it would be on television last night, I cranked it into my schedule. I grew up in theater - first doing acting, then design and directing, and now writing. I love the...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author janesbit1 - Where was Al Pacino when I was taking Shakespeare 101 at the University of Illinois? For that matter, I wish Pacino had made Looking for Richard about 20 years ago, so I could have used it with my English classes. I had the same goal as Pacino –...

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 18:21:22 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author SirenSix - A friend of mine who can't stand Shakespeare loves this documentary and recommended it to me highly. (Yes, it is a documentary, despite its peculiar categorization here.)

I happen to enjoy Shakespeare very much, and I also enjoyed Looking...

mvie mu-1073436: Shakespeare Made Simple

Fri, 3 Mar 2000 01:56:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author energy81 - I fell in love with the works of William Shakespeare when I was twelve years old. I had a friend who would give me reading lists every week and we would discuss the books we'd read at the end of the week. One week Hamlet was on that list and the play...

mvie mu-1073436: The Winter Of Our Discontent

Mon, 13 Dec 1999 08:10:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author nathantyree - Richard III is possibly Shakespeare's most difficult, and most stunning play. It details the rise and fall of King Richard as he hacks and kills his way to the throne.

Richard, the hump backed protagonist, is one of the most engaging characters ever...
