Shakespeare on Film by Judith Buchanan
This carefully researched, accessibly written book offers textual and contextual analysis covering an extensive breadth of Shakespeare’s films, ranging from the silent era to the present day. Nine lively and thought-provoking chapters examine the films as indicators of the cultural moment of their production. Each is analysed in terms of its technical and interpretive mechanisms and considered as part of a wider Shakespeare performance history."With its twenty-two high-resolution illustrations and on-the-spot introductions to its various parts, Shakespeare on Film represents an invigorating read and establishes a benchmark for subsequent inquiry"
"This is a handy reference point for any student; it is also a cornucopia of scholarship for the dedicated critic."
Ramona Wray, Shakespeare Quarterly
