Hamlet Positive reviews

2022-01-08 08:02
The costumes of the actors in the film are modern and gorgeous, and the scenes and lines are basically unchanged, which successfully reproduces Shakespeare's original work. The interior and exterior design of the film maintains the 19th-century Scandinavian neoclassical style. The background color is the solemn winter and white snow. It seems that crimes and conspiracies are hidden under the clean exterior, which also pave the way for the development of tragedy. Gloomy visual color. Director Branagh used extensive montage techniques in the film, adding flashback images in the narrative process. In this way, the language beauty of Shakespeare's plays and the visual beauty of movies are perfectly combined   .
The film is more in line with the tastes of contemporary audiences. Due to the use of pop stars, gorgeous scenes and other chips, the film no longer does not pay attention to the sense of rhythm like the old version, and the atmosphere has become more active. In the performance of Hamlet's crazy scene, the director cleverly used the refraction of the mirror. When there are countless mirrors in the picture reflecting Hamlet's painful figure, the visual impact on the audience is far more shocking than the vulgar bed scene in the previous version. Through this film, the audience can see through this story full of revenge, betrayal, desire, and ambition, and the intricate political situation and Hamlet's crazy mentality are more worthy of careful consideration   .

    As a theater director and actor, why is Kenneth Branagh's camera sense so good? !

    My favorite Hamlet so far. The filming is particularly "right", with no words deleted for four hours, so that the audience can appreciate that this is a drama of political history, not just a model of Freud's psychological analysis. Branagh's directing and acting style is full of passion, good use of the body, and many familiar scenes are very personal and full of tension, such as the thrilling scene where the prince wants to kill but does not kill his uncle. Domingo sang at the end of the credits, and the play was brilliant enough.

Hamlet quotes
