Prospero's Books
''Prospero's Books'' is a 1991 British fantasy drama film, written and directed by Peter Greenaway, is a cinematic adaptation of ''The Tempest'', by William Shakespeare. John Gielgud is Prospero, the protagonist who provides the off-screen narration and the voices to the other story characters. Stylistically, ''Prospero's Books'' is narratively and cinematically innovative in its techniques, combining mime, dance, opera, and animation. Edited in Japan, the film makes extensive (and pioneering) use of digital image manipulation (using Hi-Vision video inserts and the Paintbox system), often overlaying multiple moving and still pictures with animations. Michael Nyman composed the musical score and Karine Saporta choreographed the dance. The film is also notable for its extensive use of nudity, reminiscent of Renaissance paintings of mythological characters. The nude actors and extras represent a cross-section of male and female humanity.
== Plot ==
The daughter of Prospero, an exiled magician, falls in love with the son of his enemy, while the sorcerer's sprite, Ariel, convinces him to abandon revenge against the traitors from his earlier life. In the film, Prospero stands in for Shakespeare, and is seen writing and speaking the story's action as it unfolds. ''Prospero's Books'' is a complex tale based upon William Shakespeare's ''The Tempest.''
Ariel is played by four actors — three acrobats: a boy, an adolescent, and a youth, and a boy singer. Each represents a classical elemental. The boy represents water, and is often shown endlessly urinating.
