Patent ID: 8568839

Claim:
A retardation film comprising a liquid crystal composition comprising two or more species of liquid crystal compounds respectively having a polymerizable group, at least one species of which being a compound represented by formula (I) below, having a content of the compound represented by the formula (I) of from 20% by mass to 80% by mass relative to the total mass of said two or more species of liquid crystal compounds: P 1 -L 1 -(Z 1 -A 1 ) m -Z 3 -MA-Z 4 -(A 2 -Z 2 ) n -L 2 -R 0 Formula (I) where, P 1 represents a polymerizable group; each of L 1 and L 2 independently represents a divalent spacer group; each of Z 1 to Z 4 independently represents a divalent linking group; each of A 1 and A 2 independently represents a divalent cyclic group; each of m and n independently represents an integer from 0 to 3; R 0 represents a hydrogen atom or substituent; MA represents any one group selected from the group consisting of M-1, M-5, M-6, M-8, M-9 and M-11 below:
