the mock trial scene with the "joint-stool".
Ian Holm ... Lear
David Burke ... Kent
Paul Rhys ... Edgar
Michael Bryant ... Fool
Timothy West ... Gloucester
Holm has been acting professionally since joining the Royal Shakespeare Company as a spear-carrier in 1954. He was a young 66 when he filmed this "Lear".
I don't know I feel this scene is meant to be a bit more comical....but that is just me. I understand he is going mad with grief, but the fool i thought is always meant to be a comic relief.

The thumbnail for this video looks to me like a Titian painting. I wonder if this is intentional?
