i saw this version of hamlet on television many year ago and and have see every other version since and whether television or movie . however and this be the one that remain the true depiction of the story for me . most excellent derek jacobi make hamlet real for me . before i saw this version and shakespeare be simply gibberish to me and i never try to understand the elizabethan english . have see jacobi hamlet several time not only increased my knowledge of literature and but also that of my family . i promptly check the play out of library and read it and and pour over the accompany recording . jacobi rendition attract me to a deep knowledge . and yet and i have be sear for a video of it for year and year to no avail . it get a very high rating from viewer . why and then and have it not be release on video . it the only hamlet that i would invest in .
