Hamlet

It took about three days to watch this nearly four-hour movie... Shakespeare’s dramatic language is really perfect and speechless (but...hey, it feels like listening to Sherlock played by Benny again, I just don’t understand, 囧?)

Speaking of this movie, Shakespeare’s plays are still suitable for the stage and adapted into a movie. Generally speaking, they are not suitable. The movie format has not played its due role at all. The inner monologues of large sections of characters are presented in the form of movies. It is boring self-talking and exaggerated self-acting. From my perspective, it is like peeking through a surveillance camera. It feels like everyone in the play is crazy? It greatly weakens the intimacy of the theater performance. , Substituting the emotions of the audience.

Hamlet should be a combination of impulse and restraint. He is crazy and full of anger, but he is always suppressed by reality and hesitant prince, but I feel that the hamlet in the movie is only crazy, and the end of the duel is even worse. No sense of rhythm at all.

Moreover, as a face dog, this prince is really a bit old

Hamlet quotes

  • Hamlet: Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio - a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy. He hath bore me on his back a thousand times, and now how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rises at it. Here hung these lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now? Your gambols? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table on a roar?

  • Hamlet: If thou didst ever hold me in thy heart, absent thee from felicity awhile and in this harsh world draw thy breath in pain to tell my story.
