Description
"Hamlet has the kind of power, energy and excitement that movies can truly exploit," award-winning actor/director Kenneth Branagh says. In this first-ever full-text film of Shakespeare`s greatest work, the power surges through every scene. The timeless tale of murder, corruption and revenge is reset in an opulent 19th-century world, using sprawling Blenheim Palace as Elsinore and staging much of the action in shimmering mirrored and gold-filled interiors. The energy is electrifying, due to a luminous cast. The excitement of the Bard`s words and an adventurous filmmaking style lift the story from its often shadowy ambience to fully-lit pageantry and rage.

Endlich...
Freue mich gewaltig, habe den Film 1997 im Kulturkino gesehen. Jetzt kann ich endlich die alte VHS Kassette wegschmeissen und ihn auf DVD geniessen.

Endlich erscheint der ungekürzte Hamlte mit Branagh. Auf den mussten wir jetzt lange genug warten. Super Film.
