Over the years, MRC's web pages devoted to literary and dramatic adaptations and readings have, well, gotten out of hand. The MRC collection of these materials has grown so large that simply listing titles on web pages has become unwieldy and sort of a pain to us. As a partial solution to this videographic problem, we've created a searchable and browsable Lit Adaptation database: http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/LiteratureVid.html Included in this database are movies based on literary and dramatic properties; movies with screenplays or adaptations by notable authors; and filmed dramatic performances, poetry, and prose reading.
Also check out MRC's sizeable listing of Shakespeare on film: http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/ShakespeareVid.html and MRC's videography of classical Greek drama: http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/classicaltheater.html
