Plot: The late Richard Harris's final film, MY KINGDOM, takes place in the gritty underworld of modern-day Liverpool. Inspired by Shakespeare's KING LEAR, Harris stars as Sandeman, the head of a prominent crime ring. After the brutal murder of Sandeman's long-loyal wife (Lynn Redgrave) the aging gangster decides to give up his fortune and divide his "kingdom" between his three daughters. However, Jo (Emma Catherwood), his youngest and favored daughter, is a reformed drug addict trying to lead a straight and narrow life and she promptly refuses any part of the family business. This leaves the inheritance to her two scheming sisters, Kath (Louise Lombard), a madam at a bondage club, and Tracy, (Lorraine Pilkington) the owner of a Liverpool soccer team. Together with their husbands (Paul McGann and Jimi Mistry), the sisters turn their backs on Sandeman and devise a plot to overthrow his powerful reign of Liverpool's working class drug trade. Like a fallen king, Sandeman is left with no one except his young grandson (Reece Noi), and together they wander the harsh city streets of wintry Liverpool. Richard Harris gives a stunning performance that is sure to be remembered for its enduring spirit and fine sense of tragedy.
