:11:00
Now, you're Richard's brother,
the sick king, and I'm Richard. Okay.
:11:04
Yes. I move this way,
and you follow me.
:11:18
- Now...
- How exciting to start with "now."
:11:24
You'd wake your audience up,
wouldn't you? "Now!"
:11:28
Now...
:11:30
...is the winter of our discontent...
:11:35
...made...
:11:37
...glorious summer...
:11:41
...by this sun of York.
:11:46
KIMBALL:
It's a pun.
:11:47
The sun of York is the sun in the sky...
:11:51
...over the English countryside of York.
:11:54
York is also your family name,
and you are one of three sons of York.
:12:00
Let me say it again, then.
:12:02
Now...
:12:03
...is the winter of our discontent...
:12:07
...made glorious summer.
:12:10
PACINO: I said the opening speech
from Richard to a group of students...
:12:15
"Our discontent made glorious summer."
Anybody know what that means?
:12:23
...who were interested, because I meant
something, didn't know what I meant.
:12:28
"Now is the winter of our discontent."
What am I saying?
:12:32
He is referring to their part...
To the Wars of the Roses.
:12:35
Before the play Richard III starts...
:12:38
...we gotta know a little bit
about what happened before.
:12:41
What happened is, we've just been
through a civil war...
:12:44
...called the War of the Roses...
:12:47
[SWORDS CLANGING]
:12:48
...in which the Lancasters
and the Yorks clashed.
:12:53
[HORSE NEIGHS]
:12:54
Two rival families,
and the Yorks won.
:12:56
They beat the Lancasters, and they're
now in power. Richard is a York.
