honestly, this is the first time i've seen Hamlet and actually understood what was going on. can't rave enough about this production

Lol. Ophelia's awkward glance at Claudius and Gertrude at 5:24 cracks me up.

@LongLiveHumour This Polonious keeps doing that! In the previous video there's a line "closes in the consequence?" that he says in the exact tone as one would say "pining for the fjords?" First thing I thought of when I watched it

@LongLiveHumour Wow I was also reminded of that same sketch! hahaha

When my teacher assigns homework reading, I watch these clips instead of reading.
