Richard III, Act 1



     By far, this play is the most engaging play. The blunt revealing of Richard's sinister and heinous character in the opening immediately grasped my attention. The dialogue between Richard and Lady Anne is very exciting and revealing on both parties. We see Anne's hatred, but also witness Richard beginning to manipulate her into marrying her. By praising Anne's beauty he is able to rid her of her harsh feelings toward Richard and consider into taking his hand in marriage. His persuasion and persistence prove victorious in coming closer to Lady Anne. I'm excited to experience what happens next.
