Elaborate disguises and mistaken identities abound in Shakespeare's romantic romp through the forest, "As You Like It" (1936), adapted here for the screen by scribe J.M. Barrie and director Paul Czinner. Sir Laurence Olivier and Elisabeth Bergner star, as the not-so-star-crossed lovers who still must undergo a series of trials before they come together as one, in one of the bard's most lively and poetic comedies.

As You Like It (1936)


The Bard's brilliant comedy with Sir Laurence Olivier in his first Shakespearian role. Elisabeth Bergner stars as Rosalind, the daughter of an exiled Duke, who falls in love with Orlando (Olivier), the son of one of her father's courtiers. When Orlando continues to ignore her, Rosalind decides the best way to be at his side is by disguising herself as a boy. Her deception works too well as Orlando would rather be in the boy's company than hers. How Rosalind works out her predicament is part of the fun in this early sound film adaptation of Shakespeare's classic play.
