An item of great interest to Shakespeare-on-film buffs: The British Universities Film and Video Council (BUFVC) is developing an international database of Shakespeare on Film, Television and Radio.
Here’s their initial write-up:
In 2005 the BUFVC, through its association with the Open University, was the recipient of a three-year Resource Enhancement grant from the Arts & Humanities Research Council, to create An International Database of Shakespeare on Film, Television and Radio.
The aim has been to deliver an authoritative online database of Shakespeare-related content in film, television, radio and video recordings, international in scope and dating from 1899 to the present day. It offers current and continuously updated distribution information and also identifies the location of copies in archive collections.
For more information on when the database will come fully online, or to search the test database, go here.
