First rate study of Kozintsevs FilmsBy PDonaldsonTiffany Conroys book is an excellent introduction to the political contexts of these superb and Shakespeare films;and in particular of the ways in which Christian imagery and ideas intertwine with dissident aesthetics in King Lear andHamlet. Kozintsev Hamlet; in particular; has been widely influential throughout the world and is a core film for understanding Global Shakespeare. The book is accessible; and will be very helpful in teaching these films as well as in prompting further scholarly research.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A fascinating look into a brilliant directorBy CustomerA fascinating look into brilliant director Kozintsevs use of the Bard as a tool for political and social dissent.Moores choice of Kozintsevs Hamlet and King Lear clearly demonstrated how Shakespeares plots mirrored the political and cultural issues from the 18th through 20th centuries.In her examination of Kozintsevs Shakespeare films; the tyranny and oppressive aspects of soviet life is clearly voiced by the covert actions of prominent artists and musicians of the times.Following Moores objectives; the range of scholarship reflected in the bibliography is clear and precise. Academics and students alike will find this book and excellent tool for further study. Her style is authoritative; but not boring. (I particularly enjoyed the section on King Lear).1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Deep; intelligent; engagingBy Daniel J. BernardMoore takes a scholarly view of Kozintsevs work; but never neglects the readers need to connect with the ideas and propositions she puts forth. Its an immersive look at the Shakespeare films by this man; examining the overarching meaning and implications of their presentation. This is written in an academic but accessible style; and anyone who loves film; theater; politics and/or Shakespeare will find this read enlightening and time well-spent.
