About
You can watch Hamlet (1990) on Hoopla with a participating library card.
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, finds out that his uncle Claudius killed his father to obtain the throne, and plans revenge.
Hamlet struggles to reconcile a crushing sense of duty with a paralyzing urge to hesitate. This version trades stagey artifice for a visceral, psychological battle that keeps the madness feeling dangerously personal.
