Description:
"Many of our favorite films began as plays - some as well known as Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, and some as little known as You've Got Mail's origin, the 1937 play Parfumerie by Miklos Laszlo. Video Versions identifies nearly 300 films and their theatrical origins, providing readers with an overview of the films and highlighting similarities and differences to the source plays within the critical commentary. Perfect for teachers, students, and anyone interested in theater and film, it is the most complete resource available for video versions of plays."--BOOK JACKET.
