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 BLURBNotes: Filmography: p. 318-324; Includes bibliographical references and index; FilmographyISBN: 0521630231; 0521639751 (pbk.)LON: 21340333Contents: Introduction: Shakespeare, films and the marketplace / Russell Jackson --; Part 1: adaptation and its contexts -- From play-script to screenplay / Russell Jackson -- Video and its paradoxes / Michele Willems -- Critical junctures in Shakespeare screen history: the case of Richard III / Harry Keyishian --; Part 2: genres and plays -- The comedies on film / Michael Hattaway -- Filming Shakespeare's history: three films of Richard III / H.R.
