The play's the thing...
Quarto edition
Spark Notes:
As You Like It: Olivier plays Orlando, the steadfast lover, in the Forest of Arden.
Othello: Olivier infamously plays the title character in blackface.
Ran: Kurosawa's King Lear counterpart uses an arrow analogy to show that his three sons together are strong. He is, of course, wrong.
Prospero's Books: There is much nudity in this adaptation. The review alludes to a famous stage direction in another of Shakespeare's romances.
