Trivia of Looking for Richard
- The film was shot over four years during and around 'Al Pacino' (qv)'s filming schedule, also while he was not working on any major film projects. This is visible during the film because he is seen growing a beard and hair cut for the film _Carlito's Way (1993)_ (qv) as one example.- 'Al Pacino' (qv) himself recruited both 'Kevin Spacey' (qv) and 'Alec Baldwin' (qv) to appear in the film while filming _Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)_ (qv).
- While making this documentary, 'Al Pacino' (qv) had amassed some 80-plus hours of footage and it took six editors to cut it down to the film's theatrical length.
- All the actors that appear in the film, all worked for scale in which at one point 'Alec Baldwin' (qv) jokingly admitted during the film "Here I am working for forty bucks a day and have all the donuts you can eat".
- Pacino originally wanted to make a straight film of the play, as opposed to a documentary, but he discovered that he would not be able to top 'Laurence Olivier' (qv)'s 1955 version. Full Trivia >>
