Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I have seen three _Hamlets_: Branagh, Scofield, Olivier!. Which film!? Or maybe one I haven't seen!. "Shakespeare's message"!? What is it!? "Since existence is futile, better to be always prepared and know you will fail!?" "Be rash--boldness is better"!? "Values are relative"!? I hope you haven't been assigned this question by an inadequately prepared teacher!. The assumption of a message is laughable!. The idea that films convey messages is dubious!. The lack of specificity about the film makes the whole thing woolly!. I do think Shakespeare and clarity are not incompatible!. However, as asked, this question is unanswerable!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Which director!? which version!? what 'message'!? EVERY time Hamlet is staged or filmed, there are many many layers which can be revealled, interpreted, or pruned!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Which movie are you talking about!? What message are you referring to!?Www@QuestionHome@Com I dont think so!. And the word clearly and shakespeare should never be in the same sentence!.Www@QuestionHome@Com yepWww@QuestionHome@Com |
