That's the B/W Peter Brook film of 1971. Not my favorite: too cold, impersonal. On stage my favorite Lear was Morris Carnofsky; on film, the best of those I've personally seen was James Earl Jones, but a quick check through IMDB shows at least half a dozen more worth checking out, including Olivier, Ian Holm, Michael Hordern, Orson Welles, Patrick Magee and Brian Blessed.
