Purfled Promises was a work of expanded cinema. Two neo-drag entities entered the cinema and held a screen in front of the auditorium's red curtain on which a video was shown that consisted entirely of zooming shots of veils revealing more veils, increasingly baroque in nature until a voice over addressed the audience directly. As we'd been watching these 'reveals' it told us that what we hadn't noticed was the screen itself which was moving slowly closer towards us. At which point we did notice this and the screen kept on coming, its supporters clambering over the cinema's seats and audience's heads, finally laying it down on top of half a dozen of them who had to struggle out of it as the cinema lights came on.

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。
