The EarIiest Surviving American Feature FiIm
An astounding rediscovery of the cinema, Richard Ill is the earliest surviving American feature fiIm, newIy discovered and restored to its originaI briIliance through the American Film lnstitute, with a haunting orchestral score by composer Ennio Morricone.
Produced as a vehicIe for Frederick Warde, a legendary stage actor of the 19th Century, Richard lll was the most ambitious Shakespearian adaptation to date. The fiIm not only attempts to honor the intricacies of the original play, it fIavors the drama with spectacular crowd scenes and rich color tints. Richard lIl offers a fresh glimpse at a time when Shakespeare wasn't strictly the domain of scholars but was a source of popular entertainment, "when Americans didn't have to be spoon-fed a great dramatist but were united in their passion for one who gave them characters who mirrored their own compIex humanity, not to mention sublime poetry, along with requisite doses of sex and vioIence." (Frank Rich, The New York Times) |
