Summary: | The formidable James Earl Jones reprises his critically acclaimed King Lear in this television adaptation of Joseph Papp's New York Shakespeare Festival production. Of Jone's performance, The Washington Post wrote, "Jones has the qualities of mind, body, voice and movement which enable him to make us care deeply about the spectacle of an old man brought to grief by his folly. The magnitude Jones projects is not a matter of physical size, but largeness of soul." |
