synopsis
Receiving multiple Academy Award nominations, this is one of Olivier's outstanding Shakespearean performances. The well-known story of the Moor general who is driven to murder his wife because of his towering jealousy over what he believes is her infidelity, it is a tale told with restraint and compassion for the human frailties that lead us to our own destruction.
