Modern era adaptations of Shakespare


I've watched thus far Taymor's Titus and Loncraine's Richard III, and I'm aware of Branagh's Hamlet.

Are there any others?

reply

Basically any Branagh adaptation (except Henry V) is set at least in the 19th, if not the 20th century.

Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing: Early 19th century
As You Like It: Late 19th century Japan
Love Labour's Lost: Late 1930s

The Magic Flute (not by Shakespeare ): World War I

There's the '60s film All Night Long, its Othello in a Jazz club.
