Description: Othello (Criterion Collection) [New Blu-ray] Title: Othello (Criterion Collection) Format: Blu-ray Label: Criterion Collection Genre: Drama UPC: 715515197816 Release Date: 2017 Othello (The Criterion Collection) [DVD] Special Edition Gloriously cinematic despite being made on a tiny budget, Orson Welles’s Othello is a testament to the filmmaker’s stubborn willingness to pursue his vision to the ends of the earth. Unmatched in his passionate identification with Shakespeare’s imagination, Welles brings his inventive visual approach to this enduring tragedy of jealousy, bigotry, and rage, and also gives a towering performance as the Moor of Venice, alongside Suzanne Cloutier as his innocent wife, Desdemona, and Micheál MacLiammóir as the scheming Iago. Shot over the course of three years in Morocco, Venice, Tuscany, and Rome and plagued by many logistical problems, this fiercely independent film joins Macbeth and Chimes at Midnight in making the case for Welles as the cinema’s most audacious interpreter of the Bard.TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew, restored 4K digital transfers of two versions of the film, the 1952 European version and the 1955 U.S. versionAudio commentary featuring filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich and Orson Welles scholar Myron MeiselReturn to Glennascaul, a 1953 short film made by MacLiammóir and actor Hilton Edwards during a hiatus from shooting OthelloNew interview with Welles biographer Simon CallowNew interview with Welles scholar François Thomas on the differences between the two versionsNew interview with Ayanna Thompson, author of Passing Strange: Shakespeare, Race, and Contemporary AmericaInterview from 2014 with Welles scholar Joseph McBridePLUS: An essay by film critic Geoffrey O’BrienCopyright DirectToU LLC.
