Ａ・パチーノの初監督作品。シェイクスピア作品では難解とされる、『リチャード三世』の映像化をめぐるドキュメンタリー。彼は主演の他、製作とナレーション台本も共同で担当している。出演者はみな俳優である自分自身として登場し、映画化のためのディスカッションやリハーサルに加え、実際に扮装、演技までする。これに街頭でのインタヴューやシェイクスピアの生家の探訪、シェイクスピア作品ゆかりの俳優のインタヴューが挿入される。これらは『リチャード三世』のストーリーに沿って展開されるが、前記の模様が様々にモンタージュされ、配役や作品の解釈は言うに及ばず、シェイクスピアやその作品の解釈、それに取り組む様を浮き彫りにしていく。単なるメイキングにとどまらず、演じる様子だけでなく、映像化された画面や、映像化に向けての様々なアプローチを取り入れることにより、親しみのある作品に仕上がっている。劇中インタヴュー出演はＪ・ギールガッド、Ｋ・ブラナー、Ｖ・レッドグレイヴ、Ｄ・ジャコビ、Ｊ・Ｒ・ジョーンズ、Ｋ・クライン。全米監督組合でドキュメンタリー部門の監督賞を受賞。

Judy at the Palace. Sinatra at Carnegie Hall. Streisand at the Garden. Stritch on Broadway. Legendary performances come along so rarely. Elaine Stritch At Liberty is an autobiographical one-woman show written by Elaine Stritch and John Lahr. The show consists of spoken monologues from Stritch following her life and career, interspersed with showtunes and pop standards which compliment her stories. Many of these songs had been originated by Stritch in major Broadway productions, such as "The Ladies Who Lunch" from Company and "Civilization" from Angel In The Wings. Her experiences and relationship with show business are focal points, but she also explores more intimate, personal themes like her alcoholism and romantic relationships.
