King Lear (1982) torrent

When King Lear rejects his most devoted daughter Cordelia because she refuses to patronise him with hollow sentiments, he embarks on a journey into humiliation, loneliness and eventually madness. In what is widely regarded as Shakespeare's greatest creative achievement, a story of family conflict ultimately reveals the bare futility of the human condition.

Director Jonathan Miller has had so many triumphs with this great Shakespearian tragedy that his name is now synonymous with the play. In this renowned version, the Royal Shakespeare Company's Michael Hordern gives a remarkable performance in the lead role.
