Shakespeare’s Hamlet has been adapted for the screen countless times over the years, so the question is this: whose depiction of the Danish prince is best? I’ve seen several versions, including those featuring Mel Gibson, Laurence Olivier, Kevin Kline, and Ethan Hawke, but I’m not sure that I have a preference.
In this new video from JoBlo.com, Hamlet’s famous “To be or not to be...” speech is pieced together using a variety of performances. It’s interesting to see the subtle nuances of the actors’ portrayals, albeit for just a few seconds at a time. Take three minutes to enjoy the monologue, and let me know who you think does it best. Adam Sandler, anyone?
