"In this last film of his career, Kozint︠s︡ev captures the austere grandeur of King Lear, the story of pride and arrogance in which an old king prematurely divides up his empire between his daughters in the vain hope that they will care for him when he no longer wields the reigns of authority. His trust in flattery over love proves his downfall."

"A powerful Russian adaptation of Shakespeare's play."
"An aging king of Britain divides his kingdom between his two sycophantic but ungrateful daughters, Goneril and Regan, and disowns his truly loving but more restrained youngest daughter, Cordelia. Only after he is driven insane by disillusionment with Goneril and Regan is he able to come to terms with reality and be reconciled with Cordelia. Tragedy ensues as those with a maturing sense of responsibility struggle with those overcome by greed, desire for power andjealousy."
