Hey what's up? This is Alan, I am a journalist and this is Ingresse na Arte, my culture channel on YouTube.
In this video, I talk about theater and about the play "The Lion in Winter",
in which the actress Regina Duarte has a great performance as a resentful queen, whose name is Eleanor.
Forget the title of "Brazil's girlfriend" which plays suffered characters that audience loves as Regina Duarte used to be known throughout her 50-year career.
In the play "The Lion in Winter", she plays an embittered and a vengeful woman
who tries to do everything to overthrow her husband, the king Henry II, played by Leopoldo Pacheco.
Directed by Ulysses Cruz, this play features a Christmas reunion of Henry's family.
At parties like that, he frees her wife to spend some time with her three children from a tower where, look at that, he arrested her.
Their children are the firstborn Richard, the middle one Geoffrey and the younger son Johnny.
Throughout the story, the audience finds out that each one of them has personal goals,
that the relationship between them is worth nothing and they are very selfish.
While Henry II wants the younger son to become king, Eleanor wants her eldest son take the crown.
What really counts are the the collusion, the coup and the tricks for more power
according to Marcos Duad, responsible for translating the text of this piece into Portuguese.
What it is really nice about this piece is that all the characters say sentences full of bad intentions both in a direct way and full of ironies.
So it is funny to hear from Regina Duarte, paying attention to that chaotic family, saying phrases like "hey people, this happens in every family".
It is also funny to note the audience's reaction, which does not seem to believe
how a mother can encourage her son to disrespect his father or make their sons to fight against each other.
Because of Regina Duarte's performance, who in this piece has a "perfect time" for irony, the dramaturgy gets better.
It is worth mentioning that for this performance Regina Duarte was nominated for the Shell Award in the Best Actress category.
"The Lion in Winter" was also nominated for Best Costume category, which, for me, it is king of weird,
since, unike what lots of people might think, the characters in this piece wear casual clothes and not luxury clothes,
such the audience could think about a play involving king and queen.
It is also worth mentioning the presence of a band on the stage that produces sounds of doors opening,
steps on the floor and closing doors. For me, this gives the idea of there is always someone who stalks.
This play directed by Ulysses Cruz is the first Brazilian version of the text written by James Goldman.
In the USA, in addition to feature this story on Broadway in the 1960s, he also wrote the screenplay for the movie "The Lion in Winter".
In 1968, this story was adapted for a movie with Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn and Anthony Hopkins, on his first experience in movies, in the cast.
This movie won three Academy Awards, including Best Actress and Best Screenplay.
In addition to Regina Duarte and Leopoldo Pacheco, Caio Paduan, Michel Waisman,
Camila dos Anjos, Filipe Bragança and Sidney Santiago are in the cast and they are great.
The first run of "The Lion in Winter", at Porto Seguro Theater, in São Paulo, ends this Sunday, June 29, and for now there is no schedule yet another run.
So, hurry to watch this piece and Regina Duarte's performance.
This is it. Next Tuesday, there is a new video on this channel.
