"[A] wonderfully intelligent, concise, and helpful book." — Literature/Film Quarterly
"Those who know Shakespeare, films and theory, will marvel at this wonderfully intelligent, concise and helpful book. Those who are beginning will be drawn in by its clarity and its abundant insights." — Professor Richard Vela, University of North Carolina at Pembroke
"With remarkable economy, this volume spans a century of screen history, while providing the reader with a user-friendly guide to an impressive array of cinematic techniques and critical methodologies. Arguing the ongoing importance of approaching Shakespeare on film as a unique genre of adaptation, it offers insightful readings of a broad range of carefully chosen films and successfully integrates the study of both disciplines without compromising the integrity of either; it is a classic in its own right." — Courtney Lehmann, University of the Pacific, Stockton
