Согласно авторитетному опросу среди деятелей мирового театра, Лир Пола Скофилда – лучшая шекспировская роль ХХ века, квинтэссенция Шекспира. Существует кинофильм, поставленный Питером Бруком в 1971 году, почти через 10 лет после премьеры спектакля. Достаточно первого крупного плана Лира – Скофилда, чтобы понять – нет, пожалуй, готовых рецептов для молодых актёров тут не будет. Гениальность – отличная собственность, но сомнительное наследство. И эта мощь, и это словно из базальтовой глыбы вырубленное неподвижное лицо, каждый мимический жест которого выглядит гигантским тектоническим сдвигом, и этот голос с хриплой трещиной – словно в церковный орган попала молния, всё это – неповторимо.Сцена бури навсегда избавит видевших её от иллюзий возможности обойтись в шекспировских ролях тем, что Михаил Чехов называл «личной психологией».
