La tragédie d’Hamlet, by Peter Brook (134’)
One could judge this two ways: first, as an original, self-contained film by Peter Brook; or second, as a production of Shakespeare’s play.In this movie, Peter Brooks brings together his passion for Shakespeare and two fields he has been exploring for long years: theater and cinema. He shoots his direction of the play at the Bouffes du Nord theater in 2000, raising this way the question of a multiple game, the playing of the actors, and the playing between the man of the theater and the film director’s eye.
