What a 1967 film based on the play of the same name by William Shakespeare about a courtship between two strong-willed people, that also has a television adaptation the 1980 "BBC Television Shakespeare"?
The Taming of the Shrew on screen There have been numerous on screen adaptations of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew". The best known cinematic adaptations are Sam Taylor's 1929 "The Taming of the Shrew" and Franco Zeffirelli's 1967 "The Taming of the Shrew", both of which starred the most famous celebrity couples of their era; Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks in 1929 and Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in 1967. On television, perhaps the most significant adaptation is the 1980 "BBC Television Shakespeare" version, directed by Jonathan Miller and starring John Cleese and Sarah Badel.
Macbeth (1960 American film) Macbeth is a 1960 television film adaptation of the William Shakespeare play presented as the November 20, 1960 episode of the American anthology series "Hallmark Hall of Fame". The series' second production of the play was, like the 1954 live telecast, also directed by George Schaefer, and again starred English-born American actor Maurice Evans and Australian actress Judith Anderson. The supporting cast, however, was different, consisting entirely of British actors, and was filmed on location in Scotland; the 1954 version had used a mostly American cast.
