The Bards’ plays have been adapted to the big screen by numerous directors over the years, creating a whole ‘Shakespeare movie’ genre. Here we take a look at some of the classic Shakespeare movie adaptations – from Keneth Branagh’s Henry V to Roman Polanski’s classic Macbeth. Shakespeare movie adaptations are big business – at last count, over than 420 feature-length movie versions of Shakespeare’s plays have been filmed. This makes Shakespeare the most filmed author ever – in any language!
