This is my favorite movie version of Hamlet! The castle setting and the costumes make the viewer feel as though they are in the 14th or 15th century and are a part of the drama. While it doesn't include every scene from the play (no movie version does) it tells the story in a mood I feel William Shakespeare would approve of. I have shown this to my 7th grade Literature class and they loved it! I highly recommend this movie!
