Folger-specific note
In The Godfather, part III, a character played by Joe Mantegna remarks "All bastards are liars. Shakespeare wrote poems about it". This reference to the character of Edmund in William Shakespeare's King Lear also emphasizes thematic similarities between Lear and Part III made apparent in the climactic finale.
