Synopsis
The story of Hamlet has been told for 400 years...but it´s never been told like this! Mel Gibson (the Mad Max and Lethal Weapon films) takes on his richest part to date, the title role in a dynamic new version of Shakespeare´s Hamlet. Directed by Franco Zeffirelli (Romeo and Juliet, Jesus of Nazareth), the location shot production has a sumptuous look that won Academy Award nominations for Art Direction and Costume Design. Gibson plays the prince of medieval era Denmark, who senses treachery behind his royal father´s death. Glenn Close (Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liaisons) plays Hamlet´s mother Gertrude, all too dangerously entangled in that treachery. A brilliant supporting cast, including Alan Bates as Claudius, Paul Scofield as the ghost of Hamlet´s father, Ian Holm as Polonius and Helena Bonham Carter as Ophelia, adds its powerful presence to this immortal tale of high adventure and evil deeds. Big, bold and heroic, this is a vivid and virile Hamlet for the modern age and all time..
