- That comes from Richard III.
MAN 5:
It does, yes.I mean, nobody knows
who Richard llI is.
- Nobody.
HADGE:
It's a tough play to get.The relationships between
those characters.
- Who can keep it straight?
- Well, I think the question is...
...what is the understanding?
I mean, the understanding is...
It's a simply... Can you
follow the story line and the plot?
We've provided this kind of
docudrama-type thing...
...to inform some of the scenes
so you know where you are.
For instance, there's an early scene
with the queen...
... and her brother and her two sons...
... which is outside in an anteroom...
...waiting for the king to call them in
because he is inside, sick.
The queen is worried. She's afraid
the king will die, who is her husband.
And when he dies, the only...
The only people left to inherit the throne
are her two young sons...
...by the king himself.
She has two sons by a previous
marriage, which are in the scene.
And she's afraid that the character I
play, Richard llI of Gloucester...
...is going to take hold
of the situation...
...and somehow manipulate them
into thinking...
...that they're, you know...
That the kids are...
I can imagine how you must feel...
...hearing me talk. It's confusing.
I don't know why we even bother
doing this at all.
But we'll give it a little try.
Let's see what we can come up with.
First of all, let's get a smaller...
Let's work out of a smaller book
than this. This is hard to carry.
- Excuse me, but look at this. "Hello?"
- I think...
"Yes. It's my entrance? Oh, I see. "
It's good sometimes that you open it,
and it is Richard, it's not Hamlet.
Sometimes in Shakespeare,
there's a tendency...
...to confuse the plays.
The first act is about a sick king,
and everybody maneuvering...
PACINO:
Sure.... around. I wish that this play...
...could begin...
...on the body...
On the sleeping king...
...Edward IV, your brother, in bed.
PACINO:
Yeah.And it pans up and you are standing
over him, looking at him.
Yeah.
- Yes, but he's alive, the king is alive.
- Yes.
off in the distance. I'd like...
- Good. You can watch him.
PACINO:
I'd like to walk...- Frederic? Can you get the other end?
KIMBALL:
Yeah.I'd like... Hi, how are you?
Frederic and I decided to go
to The Cloisters...
... a museum that has
a medieval setting...
... which is good for us because the play
takes place in this period.
We thought we'd rehearse
in this atmosphere.
We're shooting him.
We're shooting him.
I'll be with you in a minute,
if you can just wait for me out there.
- So you're here.
- Okay. Okay.
