Annotation:
	Argues that Peter Brook's King Lear (q.v.) rejects cinematic techniques in favor of theatrical approaches by casting renowned stage actors Paul Scofield, Patrick Magee, and Jack MacGowran; by presenting a bare-bones mise-en-scène; using no extradiegetic music; and through purposeful framing, lighting, and editing. English summary, 207.
