"When is King Lear not King Lear?" https://www.worldshakesbib.org/entry/bbbp66/ Author: Holland, Peter. Type: Journal Article Year: 2023 Publication Information: Shakespeare Survey 76 (2023): 64–75. Annotation: Surveys film adaptations of King Lear, as well as adaptations of adaptations. Positions Joseph L. Mankiwiecz's House of Strangers (1949) and Edward Dmytryk's Broken Lance (1954) as "possibly not-Shakespeare-adaptation" whose ties to Shakespeare are shaped in the eye of the beholder; suggests that Don Boyd's My Kingdom and Sangeeta Datta's Life Goes On (q.v. both) are purposeful intertexts that explore King Lear. English summary, 264.
