This is sooo gay....

@kevinastraw Less is more a lot of the time, especially in film. Bear in mind that in this era film was still in its infancy.

Branagh would be more Yoric the court jester you cant compare Greatness to that.

i can always watch Hamlet
but is this true that Olivier omitted several scenes from the play?
-
Olivier is saying these lines as though reading them. The soliloquy should be full of emotion - e.g. "O most wicked speed..." should be delivered with intense disgust at the gross and illicit sexual doings of his uncle and mother. In fact the whole production is poor - the lines have not been sufficiently mastered by the cast.

Thanks for posting this. One of my fav movies/plays.

@ShakespeareHamlet Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet was disgusting. Derek Jacobi out Hamlet's Kenneth.

@bookkeeper57 Acting for a camera is a lot different than acting for a live audience.

LAURENCE OLIVIER TRIBUTEby mickh182,458 views
Oh I loved this scene! So beautifully put. Olivier is by far the best cinematic Hamlet, and arguebly one of the best stage Hamlet's of the 20th century.

classic movie. Sir Laurence Olivier's greatest achievement. Kenneth Branagh and Laurence Olivier's versions are the definitive versions of Shakespeare's classic tragedie. I love Olivier's use of close-ups and lengthy tracking shots to emphasize Hamlet's loneliness. Branagh would do Sir Larry one better by filming the entire play, and in epic scale, too. The black-and-white cinematography helped too, for this film. Only one line was cut from the "O, that this too too solid flesh..." soliloquy.
