Hamlet

There is a new Hamlet DVD and, surprisingly, it had me on the edge of my seat. I’ve read Shakespeare’s iconic play for school and pleasure and have seen it performed numerous times.

But … I have never seen anything like Maxine Peake as Hamlet. Her performance is incredible and it brings new life to the familiar words that were written hundreds of years ago.

Movie Synopsis

Shakespeare’s most iconic work, Hamlet, explodes with big ideas and is the ultimate story of loyalty, love, betrayal, murder and madness.
Hamlet’s father is dead and Denmark has crowned Hamlet’s uncle the new king. Consumed by grief, Hamlet struggles to exact revenge, with devastating consequences.

There are many Hamlet quotes that are still used today, and some may not realize that this particular play is their origin.  Following are a few of them:

  • To be, or not to be. That is the question.
  • To thine own self be true.
  • Brevity is the soul of wit.
  • Listen to many. Speak to a few.
  • The lady doth protest too much, me thinks.

    I remember my Mother always saying that something is rotten in the state of Denmark when we were kids, never knew really what that meant but she was a tough old German woman who always quoted many old saying as we were growing up. You are definitely right about Maxine Peake as Hamlet, a four star performance. Another must see movie.

    I love Hamlet. When I was in high school, our English teacher had us memorize the entire play and we had to act it out in front of the class as part of our final exam. It was actually really fun and I can still remember a lot.
