Richard III
VC 3072
Released on Video Collection.
Small Box - Retail Tape
Many of Shakespeare's plays have been made into memorable films but Olivier's Richard III is perhaps the finest of them all. Britain's best Shakespearian actors, including Ralph Richardson and John Gielgud, give superb performances which complement Laurence Olivier's definitive portrayal of the hunchback King. Richard III is the story of one man's unbridled lust for the crown. Richard's ambition leaves all who oppose him dead, pawns in Richard's ruthless bid for the throne. Richard III is a majestic film in every sense of the word, and one of the greatest films ever produced in England.
