Hamlet Movies
Hamlet (1996) - directed by Kenneth Branagh
placed the characters in a grandeur setting
characters blond (I found this weird since I imagined them all with dark hair)
Hamlet's character was melodramatic
there seems to be a slight incestuous relationship hinted at between Hamlet and
his mother
his mother
Hamlet (1948) - directed by Lawrence Oliver
though the oldest of the three hamlet movies, it had the most risque undertones
insinuation that Hamlet is gay
Hamlet (1980) - BBC version
instead of placing the characters in a medieval setting, the setting was modern
(which is exactly how Shakespeare would have had his plays performed)
(which is exactly how Shakespeare would have had his plays performed)
Hamlet is portrayed as childlike in comparison to his father
Pass.
