American Film Theatre


The American Film Theatre was a limited run series of film adaptations of stage plays, produced by Ely Landau. Two seasons were produced from 1973 to 1975. The 14 films were contracted to be exhibited in 500 theaters in 400 cities, admission based on subscription to the entire series. By design, these were not films of stage productions — they were plays "translated to the film medium, but with complete faithfulness to the original play script."

The films were released on DVD in 2003 by Kino International and again in 2008 as a boxed set.
