Description

One of many silent adaptations with a vague connection to the Shakespearean canon, discussed in detail by Professor Ball. If all of these types of silent derivations were included in a Shakespeare filmography, the list would be overwhelming. A few, such as this one, need to be mentioned here to suggest the wide range of possibilities. For full details, see Ball
