A History of Shakespeare on Screen: A Century of Film and Television chronicles how filmmakers have reimagined Shakespeare's plays in moving images from their earliest exhibition in nickelodeons to today's multimillion dollar productions shown in multiplexes. Topics covered include the silent era, Hollywood in the 1930s, the films of Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles, the transgressive cinema of Jarman and Greenaway, and the renaissance of the Shakespeare film with Kenneth Branagh in the 1990s. The book is truly international in scope, looking not only at screen adaptations in the UK and the US but also at the films of Kozintsev, Kurosawa, Zeffirelli and others. A filmography, bibliography and index of names make it invaluable as a onevolume reference work for specialists, while its accessible style will ensure that it appeals to enthusiasts and filmgoers as well as to a more academic audience.
