As You Like It - Laurence Olivier

1933 directed by Paul Czinner starring Laurence Olivier as Orlando, Elisabeth Bergner as Rosalind, Henry Ainley as the exiled Duke, Felix Aylmer as Duke Frederick, Stuart Robinson as Amiens, Leon Quartermaine as Jacques, Austin Trevor as Le Beau, Lionel Braham as Charles the Wrestler, John Laurie as Oliver, J. Fisher White as Old Adam, Mackenzie Ward as Touchstone. Aubrey Mather as Corin, Richard Ainley as Silvius, Peter Bull as William and Sophie Stewart as Celia. J. M. Barrie worked on the adaptation and David Lean served as Editor. Engaging, early adaptation of the play by Shakespeare, in which a seedy Duke banishes the goodly Duke and his daughter to the mysterious Forest of Arden, where nothing is as it seems and love softens even the stoniest of hearts. Only drawback is Bergner's shrill voice, which is as appealing as a woodpecker.
