Hamlet (To Be Or Not To Be)

This one doesn't really need explaining, does it? Hamlet contemplates suicide.

(This clip is property of the BBC, if you couldn't tell by the watermark on David Tennant's forehead. Good luck ignoring that now.)

@DavidTennantsLover7 : he did some lines, i noticed that and went back to the script of the play and saw the lines that he skipped. Mayb the director felt those lines skipped were not too important to the overall effect of gloom and doom portrayed in Hamlet's soliloquy. Or maybe they skipped it, because it's so freaking long (trying to save time, wouldn't blame them). Still a very emotional speech though

Thanks a lot for the video, this is a Great Hamlet, modern and tortured wonderful cast.....David is such a great actor, he gives strong emotions it' s impossible to look away from the intensity of his wonderful eyes!!

I have read hamlet over two and a half years ago. I remember the KIng told Hamlet about Cludious killing him, but was Hamlet contempleting suicide an act or was he actually suicidal. Suicidal and vengeful. THe closes modern day character that comes to mind is Martin Riggs from Letahl Weapon.
