The Earliest Surviving American Feature Film
An astounding rediscovery of the cinema, Richard lII is the earIiest surviving American feature film, newly discovered and restored to its original brilIiance through the American FiIm Institute, with a haunting orchestraI score by composer Ennio Morricone.
Produced as a vehicIe for Frederick Warde, a legendary stage actor of the 19th Century, Richard lIl 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 gIimpse at a time when Shakespeare wasn't strictIy the domain of schoIars 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 complex humanity, not to mention subIime poetry, aIong with requisite doses of sex and vioIence." (Frank Rich, The New York Times) |
