[PAR] [TLE] Mark Rylance [SEP] Sir David Mark Rylance Waters (born 18 January 1960) is an English actor, theatre director, and playwright.  He was the first artistic director of Shakespeare's Globe in London, from 1995 to 2005.  His film appearances include "Prospero's Books" (1991), "Angels and Insects" (1995), "Institute Benjamenta" (1996), and "Intimacy" (2001).  Rylance won the Academy Award and the BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Rudolf Abel in "Bridge of Spies" (2015). [PAR] [TLE] Prospero's Books [SEP] Prospero's Books is a 1991 British avant-garde film adaptation of William Shakespeare's "The Tempest", written and directed by Peter Greenaway.  John Gielgud plays Prospero, the protagonist who provides the off-screen narration and the voices to the other story characters.  Stylistically, "Prospero's Books" is narratively and cinematically innovative in its techniques, combining mime, dance, opera, and animation.  Edited in Japan, the film makes extensive use of digital image manipulation (using Hi-Vision video inserts and the Paintbox system), often overlaying multiple moving and still pictures with animations.  Michael Nyman composed the musical score and Karine Saporta choreographed the dance.  The film is also notable for its extensive use of nudity, reminiscent of Renaissance paintings of mythological characters.  The nude actors and extras represent a cross-section of male and female humanity.
