Author Description

"This is the only book to feature Taymor's complete screenplay - highlighted by color movie stills, collages, production designs and behind-the-scenes photos - most of which have never before been published. Accompanying the screenplay are the director's notes, describing the challenges of conceptualizing the play as a film for the big screen. This pictorial record of the movie also includes an introduction to the play and Taymor's work by Jonathan Bate."--BOOK JACKET.
