Many people believe that Hamlet was William Shakespeare’s finest play. Join David Jolliffe, Professor Emeritus of English at the University of Arkansas, as he investigates Hamlet through the lens of two (both excellent) film versions: Kenneth Branagh’s 1996 film (starring Branagh himself in the title role and Michael Almereyda’s 2000 version (with Ethan Hawke in the title role). The two films will be compared and contrasted by Mr. Jolliffe, who has been teaching, directing, and acting in Shakespeare plays for the past 54 years.
