The book explores the overlapping, hotly-disputed borderlands of literature, theatre and film. Concerned with the creative possibilities of rendering Shakespeare on film, the book studies the interpretations of Shakespeare by such major directors as Orson Welles, Roman Polanski, Peter Brook, Franco Zeffirelli, the Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, and one of Russia's greatest film-makers, Grigori Kozintsev. It provides detailed analyses of 16 major films, illuminating the relations between Renaissance visions and modern re-visions, the parallels of poetic and cinematic imagery, and the quests of directors for significant cinematic style. The book is illustrated by over one hundred film photographs.
