5.0 out of 5 stars
shakespeare in films and on television,
By Diana (SC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A History of Shakespeare on Screen: A Century of Film and Television (Hardcover)
This penetrating work explores Shakespearean productions during the silent era, Hollywood in the 30's, and the films of L. Olivier, Orson wells, Jarman, Greenway, and the renaissance accomplished by director actor Kenneth Brannagh. Professors have recommended it as an excellent reference book for specialists as well as a text that is accessible to non-academic film enthusiasts.

3.0 out of 5 stars
one of the better books about shakespear on screen,
By Cyberbambi123 (Zürich - Switzerland / Europe) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A History of Shakespeare on Screen: A Century of Film and Television (Hardcover)
every year there are 3 - 5 new adaption of Shakespear-plays for the silverscreen. Good written book but not the lexica-type reference work. Only a few pictures. a complete filmographie with credits is unfortunately missing. other books about Shakespear on screen: "Shakespeare on Film" by Robert Shaughnessy; "Shakespeare in the Movies: From the Silent Era To The Present Day" by Douglas Brode, "Shakespeare, the Movie" by Lynda E. Boose
