He says: "(I played Lear before) badly... no, it was OK. But I want do to Lear, then maybe say, 'Adios.' I want to see what I've got left in me. Make sure I had a good go at it.
"I know somebody that's interested in producing it, one of the money guys at Miramax. I think it would be interesting to go back to the old traditional thing of setting it in Denmark or a craggy area of Britain, shoot it near the coasts in winter, set it in the dark ages."
