overview
What is King Lear about?
King Lear is a proud man who solicits praise from his three daughters in return for inheritance of the kingdom. Daughters Goneril and Regan profess their affection vehemently. Cordelia, who does not respect the process her father has chosen, does not humor him. Lear's perceived rejection from Cordelia leads to her banishment, thus splitting the kingdom between the other two. This hasty decision becomes his fatal error. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct Denmark style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Peter Brook. With a runtime of 2h 17m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
