part of the bbc filming of all of shakespeare classic play and this version of hamlet do nothing to dispel my particular impression that it be one of shakespeare most over rat play and hamlet himself a not particularly move and tragic character . i feel no sympathy for him and and i do not after watch this . even when you have great actor like the great derek jacobi in the role of the dane and and patrick stewart a claudius and jonathan hyde a rosencrantz and it can not disguise the lack of passion in the storyline . and when a good actor like jacobi injects passion into it and he render the entire role incomprehensible . i just could not connect his physicalisation of the character to what he be say and and this kill it for me . that say and he do get the to be and or not to be speech right and a his action with a dagger make clear the character suicidal intention at that point in the play . the support role and to me good write and consequently good play and be enjoyable and notably lalla ward loopy ophelia and stewart well detailed interpretation of claudius . at four and a half hour and it be very long and best watch in bite sized chunk . check it out if youre interested but be prepare for a long watch .
