About
This screening of Hamlet will be presented in 35mm.
Kenneth Branagh breathes life into this unabridged adaptation of Hamlet as both director and star. Following the death of his father and the immediate remarriage of his mother, Hamlet begins a descent Branagh fills the cast with a pantheon of stars – Kate Winslet, Julie Christie, Robin Williams, Charlton Heston, Jack Lemmon, Gerard Depardieu, among many others – and brings a level of opulence to the film's proceedings that few Shakespearean films have been able to match. Hamlet is an immersive cinematic experience that is rich, sprawling and completely lavish. Presented here in its uncut, four hour edition.
PG | Medium level violence, Adult themes, Sexual references
