- Synopsis:
Adapted by renowned author and Shakespeare scholar Leon Garfield, in collaboration with leading academic lights, these beautiful, dramatic and rewarding tales are masterly abridged renditions of the classic texts, fully faithful to the narrative and language that makes Shakespeare the most loved and respected playwright history has ever produced.
Julius Caesar
Shakespeare's dramatisation of the alliances and intrigues that surround and finally destroy the great Roman General is rendered with style and subtlety by superb eel animation. This study of personal power versus the good of the state is still as provocative and thrilling as ever.
Twelfth Night
Dour Molvolio, beautiful Countess Olivia, the disguised Viola and every other actor are played by sophisticated puppets in this charming rendition of Shake¬speare's golden comedy. Achieving an exceptional fluency of movement for stop-frame animation, the film is an utterly absorbing and enchanting adaptation.- Directors:
