520 |a Jonathan Miller's staging of this tragic masterpiece - with Michael Hordern in the title role. Epic in scope, "King Lear" nevertheless begins in fairy-tale fashion. Intending to divide his realm among his three daughters, the aged Lear first seeks from each a testimony of her love. But while they are perfunctorily forthcoming from the malevolent Goneril and Regan; loyal Cordelia balks: "[I] cannot heave my heart into my mouth. I love your majesty according to my bond; no more or less." That response elicits her banishment, plunging Lear's Britain into civil war and setting the stage for the monarch's own descent into madness. (BBC PRODUCTION)
