We understand from the passage that Branagh is of the opinion that films of Shakespeare's plays have the advantage over stage productions ----.
If Shakespeare were alive today, he'd probably be
writing movies. And Kenneth Branagh would
probably direct them. Branagh is a celebrated stage
actor who took his love of Shakespeare into
filmmaking. Altogether, he has made six of the plays
into films, starting with the award-winning Henry V in
1989. “The stories that Shakespeare writes, about
kings and queens, the fates of nations and very
powerful domestic dramas, are written at an intensity
that can be presented in a bold and heightened way
through film”, he says. “In the theatre, the words and
the performances are the same, but film does it in a
language people are more familiar with”. In As You
Like It, the film he is working on now, Branagh
transfers the action to 19th century Japan, where
romance blossoms against the country's tranquil
landscapes. This new setting speaks to modern
audiences because, Branagh says, the play is partly
about “the idea of the simple life, that feeling of
getting out of the terrible competition of city life and
being somewhere quiet, meditative and
transformative.”
