  • Cambridge Companion Shakespeare on Film
    This page intentionally left blank Film adaptations of Shakespeare’s plays are increasingly popular and now figure prominently in the study of his work and its reception. This lively Companion is a collection of critical and historical essays on the films adapted from, and inspired by, Shakespeare’s plays. An international team of 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 terms of cinematic and theatrical genres; and as the work of particular directors from Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles to Franco Zeffirelli and Kenneth Branagh. They also consider specific issues such as the portrayal of Shakespeare’s women and the supernatural. The emphasis is on feature films for cinema, rather than television, with strong cov- erage of Hamlet, Richard III, Macbeth, King Lear and Romeo and Juliet. A guide to further reading and a useful filmography are also provided. Russell Jackson is Reader in Shakespeare Studies and Deputy Director of the Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham. He has worked as a textual adviser on several feature films including Shakespeare in Love and Kenneth Branagh’s Henry V, Much Ado About Nothing, Hamlet and Love’s Labour’s Lost. He is co-editor of Shakespeare: An Illustrated Stage History (1996) and two volumes in the Players of Shakespeare series. He has also edited Oscar Wilde’s plays.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

Ellas son la causa y el fruto de múltiples idas y venidas durante cuatro años, ayudándome a aunar las que son mis tres grandes pasiones: viajar, el estudio y el teatro.1 Si bien los lugares han sido esenciales para definir lo que aquí se recoge, aún más primordial han sido mis compañeros en este viaje, a los que hoy, por fin, toca darles las gracias. Mis primeras gracias son para mi directora de tesis, Clara Calvo. Gracias, Clara, por la confianza depositada en mí estos años. Gracias por propulsar tantos viajes intelectuales. Gracias también a Ángel-Luis Pujante y Vicente Cervera, quienes leyeron una versión preliminar de algunos capítulos y cuyos consejos han sido fundamentales para su mejora. Juanfra Cerdá fue uno de los primeros lectores de la propuesta primigenia y consejero excepcional en todo este proceso.
