Desire, intrigue, murder, revenge, madness . . . 

 

Kenneth Branagh leads an all-star cast in this full-length production of William Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, the story of Danish prince Hamlet. Hamlet (Branagh, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Rabbit-Proof Fence) returns home to learn that his father, the King, has recently died and his mother, Gertrude (Academy Award winner Julie Christie, Dr. Zhivago, Finding Neverland), has already married his uncle, Claudius (Derek Jacobi, Gosford Park). Suffering from shock and grief, the young prince is visited by the ghost of his father (Brian Blessed, Macbeth, Henry V), who claims that he was murdered by Claudius and who demands vengeance. Now, Hamlet must decide whether this tale told by an apparition is true--and whether he should exact the vengeance his father demands . . . realizing that his actions may destroy the woman he loves, Ophelia (Kate Winslet, Finding Neverland, Titanic), his family and the kingdom he is due to inherit.
