The EarIiest Surviving American Feature Film
An astounding rediscovery of the cinema, Richard IlI is the earliest surviving American feature fiIm, newIy discovered and restored to its original brilliance through the American FiIm Institute, with a haunting orchestraI score by composer Ennio Morricone.
Produced as a vehicle for Frederick Warde, a legendary stage actor of the 19th Century, Richard III was the most ambitious Shakespearian adaptation to date. The film not onIy attempts to honor the intricacies of the original play, it flavors 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 popuIar 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) |
