:07:02
- They haven't done it.
- It's a difficult play.

:07:07
PACINO: If someone were to ask you
about Richard III...

:07:09
...what would you remember about it?
:07:12
To be honest, I really don't remember
that much, if anything at all.

:07:18
PACINO: Did you know that Richard III
had a deformed arm and a deformed back?

:07:22
- No, I didn't.
PACINO: You didn't know that?

:07:25
The play, Richard III,
about the guy with the humpback?

:07:28
- No.
- You got me there.

:07:30
Mm-mm.
:07:31
PACINO: He was a humpback? "A
horse. A horse. My kingdom for a horse"?

:07:35
- That comes from Richard III.
MAN 5: It does, yes.

:07:39
I mean, nobody knows
who Richard III is.

:07:43
- Nobody.
HADGE: It's a tough play to get.

:07:45
The relationships between
those characters.

:07:48
- Who can keep it straight?
- Well, I think the question is...

:07:52
...what is the understanding?
I mean, the understanding is...

:07:56
It's a simply... Can you
follow the story line and the plot?

:08:01
We've provided this kind of
docudrama-type thing...

:08:05
...to inform some of the scenes
so you know where you are.

:08:10
For instance, there's an early scene
with the queen...

:08:15
... and her brother and her two sons...
:08:17
... which is outside in an anteroom...
:08:20
...waiting for the king to call them in
because he is inside, sick.

:08:24
The queen is worried. She's afraid
the king will die, who is her husband.

:08:30
And when he dies, the only...
:08:34
The only people left to inherit the throne
are her two young sons...

:08:39
...by the king himself.
:08:41
She has two sons by a previous
marriage, which are in the scene.

:08:45
And she's afraid that the character I
play, Richard III of Gloucester...

:08:50
...is going to take hold
of the situation...

:08:53
...and somehow manipulate them
into thinking...

:08:58
...that they're, you know...
That the kids are...
