Shakespeare movies are too many to list them all. Orson Welles' Chimes at Midnight (1965) is a superb combination of several of Shakespeare's plays. Macbeth (1971) was filmed after Charles Manson's group's brutal murder of the director's wife Sharon Tate and her unborn child, and is considered on of the finest adaptations.

Many popular movies, such as The Lion King (1994), are really adaptations of works by Shakespeare (Hamlet for that movie).[1] 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) contains many references to Shakespeare and appears based on his The Taming of the Shrew.[1]

She's the Man (2006) is based entirely on Shakespeare's Twelfth Night.
