Description

A conflation of the Shakespearean history plays that feature Falstaff, the great comic figure played by Welles himself in the film. This volume offers a complete continuity script of "Chimes at Night", including its famous battle sequence. Each shot is described in detail and is keyed to the original Shakespearean sources, thus making the volume a guide to Welles as an adaptor and creator of texts. The transcription of the continuity script of "Chimes" is accompanied by the editor's critical introduction on Welles' transformation of Shakespeare; an interview with Keith Baxter, one of the film's principal actors, which discusses its production history; reviews and articles; a biographical sketch of Welles and a filmography.
