Tired of 'Friends' reruns?
Stab him in the Arrus!


Billy Crystal does comedy in the Branagh version

Yes, Hamlet has everything you want in any great story. Spies. Murders. Supernatural Appearances. Lies. Insanity. Suicide. Tons of Puns. Armed combat. Young Hotties, Comedy, Blowhards, Stupidity- Great READING!

That's what I'm reading now. It's terrific and amazing. Ophelia floating dead in the stream, poisonings, family disputes, faking insanity (or is it?), some of the best comedy ever (at the graveyard). Yes, you can read it and have a great time. then hopefully you'll watch a movie version of it.

No discussion of Hamlet is complete without this classical interpretation.

You've not experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon.
