  • I also appreciated the race-blind, sex-blind, accent-blind (deaf?) casting.

  • i think the casting worked very well, especially Charlton Heston as Player King. Branagh himself was excellent as Hamlet.

  • Honestly I felt that Robin WIlliams' appearance as Osric was too big of a shock to out-perform his actual skill as an actor.

  • Such a good version. The one with Mel Gibson wasn't bad either

  • this is so cool!
