Richard III (McKellen) (1995)
Based on Shakespeare's bloodthirsty tale of power and politics, set in 1930s England in the aftermath of a vicious Civil War, this is the story of Richard, Duke of Gloucester.
Deformed since birth but possessed of a sinister cunning, the villainous pretender to the throne manipulates and murders his way to power. The bloodbath he unleashes takes its terrible toll on family and friends until finally, with his murderous scheming out of control Richard must stand and fight one last battle.
Kidnap, seduction, betrayal and bloody murder - all play their part as one man, a twisted mind in a twisted body, pursues his ultimate dream...to become the King of England
