THANK YOU PACINO, i wish you could know how appreciative we are for your hard work in both the theatre and film. Your career as an actor has set a new standard for the future generations. We Salute and wear respect in your Honor. Greetings from Romania.
The most extraordinary movie - documentary about Shakespe A must deare. Extraordinary performances. A trip deep into the language of the bard. A must see!
This was such an amazing movie! When I watched it, I had no clue what I was seeing. Had they made a "Richard III" movie that they were talking about, and edited the scenes into a documentary? I think it's great when famous actors perform Shakespeare, because they still respect such old plays, speaking an archaic English with as much passion as if it were modern.

@ruralgent - In this case he was not being duplicitous, he was about to die in battle, leading from the front, giving a pre-battle speech, not like Henry V appealing to honour and brotherhood, but hatred and contempt for the enemy, "If we be conquered let it be by men, not these bastard Bretons!". He would not be trying to rally thousands on men with a quiet, calm voice. That would be silly. Pacino is great at these indignant, tub thumping speeches (eg City Hall, Scent of a Woman)
@ruralgent - Agreed about his character, but this speech is the team talk before the battle. Its win or die. Richard did in fact die fighting, bravely. He was not a coward. We do not know whether he was as much of a villain in real life, or to some extent a victim of Tudor propaganda, although he is a wonderful villain in Shakespeare's play. I think Al Pacino makes him sound quite weasely in some of the other other speeches.
@DontVoteCameron Dear DontVoteCameron, I suggest you to read "Di vita si muore" by Nadia Fusini, which I hope has already been translated in your language. The introduction talks about what "Shakespeare" as a person means and I think it would be interesting to you.
Man, Pacino makes a terrible RIII. He needs to stay in his wheelhouse. And in your description you call this a "movie about King Richard III." It's not a movie about RIII, it's one of the movies made from "Richard III." A movie "about" Richard III would be a documentary. And honestly, who cites Act and Scene without naming the author?
What a mean, hostile response. Do you think it's appropriate to insult complete stranger for mere trifles like this? The person who uploaded this did so in good faith. Why did you feel the need to belittle them in this fashion?
@ruralgent I agree. He's just standing there shouting. Shakespeare's text is wasted. He might as well just stand there repeating "I'm angry and nasty" over and over.
How pathetic your comment. The King is rallying his men! He is stirring their blood! He is a unifying force to which all great leaders aspire and all loyal men follow! If you want the milk-toast version, go watch the 1954 cartoon-esk version.
@@JeddieT No, thanks. And I stand by my comment. I like Al Pacino, but here he's missing specificity of what Shakespeare has provided in the language; he's playing all one note..
@@swannavon It's a bit over-the-top to put it mildly but I have to wonder if Al isn't having a bit of a poke at his blustery speeches in earlier movies. Maybe his delivery isn't meant seriously here (or maybe it is, I dunno?)
Shakespeare is listening to this and similing in his grave. Long live Shakespeare, long live Al Pacino.
Al is best when he's screaming at the top of his lungs.
Powerful.
What an artist.

Wow
My thoughts exactly
i can't think of anything to say but....TO WAR GENTLEMEN !
@jacksawild Isn't Kevin Spacey about to do Richard III at the Old Vic in London? Can't wait. I might get over there.

Okay, I truly love the documentary. I have watched it 3x. But how bout the movie itself? I cannot find it.
SHAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE SHPEARSS ADMIRATION HAHAHAHYHAHAH

Wow I didn't know King Richard how to a Little Italy or Brooklyn accent😅😅😅😅
Reemembah. I'm still a fan though
@ruralgent I agree.
@wodantheviking Yes, I've got tickets but they are going fast

I think I hear the sound of a c-hair splitting.
@@JeddieTNo, just the sound of a guy telling you that this description is sloppily written. Seriously, you wrote a dissertation?
@@steverosse…Let me guess, you’re still single.
@@JeddieT Dude, lashing out at me won't fix your sloppy, lazy copy. There's always the edit button.

I suppose he had to try before he dies…👎
I don't think he's acting this well.
