: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...
:09:02
I'm confused just saying it.
I can imagine how you must feel...
:09:06
...hearing me talk. It's confusing.
:09:08
I don't know why we even bother
doing this at all.
:09:11
But we'll give it a little try.
:09:15
Let's see what we can come up with.
First of all, let's get a smaller...
:09:19
Let's work out of a smaller book
than this. This is hard to carry.
:09:23
- Excuse me, but look at this. "Hello?"
- I think...
:09:26
"Yes. It's my entrance? Oh, I see."
:09:35
It's good sometimes that you open it,
and it is Richard, it's not Hamlet.
:09:40
Sometimes in Shakespeare,
there's a tendency...
:09:43
...to confuse the plays.
:09:47
The first act is about a sick king,
and everybody maneuvering...
:09:50
PACINO: Sure.
...around. I wish that this play...
:09:56
...could begin...
:09:59
...on the body...
