If you loved The Dresser, try King Lear
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Richard Eyre, and they sit in Drama / TV Movie territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Dresser, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What King Lear is
Lear without the heath. An aged autocrat divides his kingdom based on flattery, not love. Anthony Hopkins dominates this BBC/Amazon co-production, a late entry in the cycle of Shakespeare screen adaptations.
