Othello is a 1965 film based on the National Theatre Company's staging of Shakespeare's Othello (1964-1966) staged by John Dexter. Directed by Stuart Burge, the film stars Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Joyce Redman, and Frank Finlay, who all received Oscar nominations, and provided film debuts for both Derek Jacobi and Michael Gambon. Cast [edit] Laurence Olivier as Othello Maggie Smith as Desdemona Joyce Redman as Emilia Frank Finlay as Iago Derek Jacobi as Cassio Robert Lang as Roderigo Kenneth Mackintosh as Lodovico Anthony Nicholls as Brabantio Sheila Reid as Bianca Edward Hardwicke as Montano Michael Gambon as Senator/Soldier/Cypriot Experience Shakespeare's classic tragedy in a whole new way with the 1965 film adaptation of Othello. Featuring performances from acclaimed actors Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, and Joyce Redman, this film brings the story of love, betrayal, and revenge to life on the big screen. With Oscar nominations for the main cast and featuring the film debuts of Derek Jacobi and Michael Gambon, this is a must-see for any Shakespeare fan.
The Olivier film version of Othello remains largely faithful to Shakespeare's original play, maintaining the scene order and omitting only the Fool's scene and a few minor lines. However, the stage version contained more than the film, and the sets used were enlarged duplicates of the original stage settings rather than elaborate new ones. Despite his previous backers for Shakespeare films having passed away, Olivier was determined to bring the play to life in color and widescreen, and it became the first English-language adaptation to do so. However, the film only played for two days in the U.S. before being exhibited as a roadshow presentation. Unlike Olivier's other Shakespeare films, Othello features minimal music, with only a drinking song and a brief scene of musicians playing on exotic instruments.
