Richard III (1955) 9/10
Hamlet (1996) 9/10
Richard III (1995) 9/10
Henry V (1989) 7/10
Richard III is one of my favorite Shakespeare plays but I didn't care much for either film version because the first didn't stick to the original text and the remake was a silly anachronism, in my opinion. In fact, Olivier's version had lines written by later playwrights and eliminated Queen Margaret who was a fascinating character. I think I liked the 1935 version of A Midsummer Night's Dream the best of all because of the all-star cast and the overall cheerful approach to the story. Others I like...every one of Branagh's, both of Zefferelli's and Olivier's Hamlet.
