and in an hour or two I'm going to watch all FOUR GLORIOUS HOURS of it.

I'm ready to get my Shakespeare on.

I always preferred the "Gilligan's Island" version.

Aw, hamlets are easy. Ya' jus' add some diced ham to the eggs before stirring and...
Poor Ol' Yorick swears by 'em!

I always found KB a little tough to take (over-actor clap, clap, clap clap clap). His Hamlet was good, though.

See, and I think that trait makes Branagh perfect for theater and parts like Dr. Arliss Loveless and Gilderoy Lockhart.

Exactly!

Henry V, Iago, Hamlet, Benedick, Berowne, Victor Frankenstein.... Branagh rocks my face off.

That movie did have some nice production value.

I still like Welles' Othello as the best Will adapt.
