The Worthy family seeks revenge as we discuss Laurence Olivier’s 1948 Shakespeare adaptation of ‘Hamlet’! We discuss the work of Shakespeare being adapted to film and whether to strongly diverge from the text or duplicate the words of the playwright. We even talk about our own experiences with Shakespeare and how we’ve changed as we’ve gotten older. Is Laurence Olivier’s Hamlet the best adaptation of Shakespeare's work? We dive into the unique camerawork of the film and how the perspective of the camera guides us as if we were God.

There’s no way we can discuss Hamlet without honoring the great work in front and behind the camera by Olivier as he guides us through this tragedy. The production design and costumes truly bring color to this black-and-white adaptation of Shakespeare's seminal work.
