SHAKESPEAREAN MOVIES
(by the editorial staff of arianuova.org) 
What we propose here, are not all the movies inspired to the great Bard of Avon, but only those that seems to us the most beautiful and ingenious transpositions on wide screen. We have even included, in square brackets, a sort of score (from one to five points, the latter indicating the best). Do you agree with us?
Shakespeare
«The Greeks sought universality by omitting all finer individual thouches; Shakespeare sought it more successfully by universalising the rarest individual details of character. That which Nature uses for concealing from us the Infinite, Shakespeare used for revealing the Anantaguna in man to the eye of humanity». SRI AUROBINDO
