Summary: "This lively Companion is a collection of critical and historical essays on the films adapted from, and inspired by, Shakespeare's plays. Leading scholars discuss Shakespearean films from a variety of perspectives - as works of art in their own right, as products of the international movie industry, in relation to cinematic and theatrical genres, and as the work of particular directors from Lawrence Olivier and Orson Welles to Franco Zeffirelli and Kenneth Branagh. A guide to further reading and a useful filmography are included." - BOOK BLURB

Summary: "This pictorial history of some of the great foreign classics of the last half-century was compiled by a distinguished film historian and critic, for whom the cinema at its best is a genuine art-form; and the special success of the book is the way in which the author evokes the 'feeling' of the films which have aroused his keenest interest and admiration." -- BOOK JACKET

Summary: Kurosawa's Throne of Blood (1957) is widely regarded as the greatest film adaptation of Shakespeare's Macbeth. This fascinating interpretation of the film explores how Kurosawa draws key philosophical and psychological arguments from Shakespeare, translates them into strong visual metaphors, and inflects them through the cultural history of Japan.
