In the "The Twilight Zone" episode "The Purple Testament" (February 12, 1960), an American soldier named Lieutenant "Fitz" Fitzgerald (William Reynolds) fighting in World War II suddenly develops the ability to see when someone is near death. Fitz initially tries to warn the soldiers that they are fated to be killed, but his declarations (as one might expect) prove to be damaging to the troops' morale. "Richard III" is about the bloody folly of ambition and the hero's death on the battlefield.
