Hamlet on screen

There are probably countless film versions of Hamlet, ranging from the one starring Sir Laurence Olivier (1948)





to the one with Kenneth Brannagh (1996) 






 Next Saturday 26th Film and Arts is airing a version featuring Ethan Hawke (2000)

 

 It has met with highly mixed  reviews

 It can be a good idea to compare these five different renderings of the (perhaps) most famous soliloquy in drama. There are some questions to help you in the video itself. You can also compare the video from Hamlet la Metamorfosis available in the previous post
