It may be my over...I love the Ethan Hawke version! It may be my overall favorite. It definitely has my favorite Laertes ever (Liev Schreiber), one of my favorite Ophelias (Julia Stiles) and possibly my favorite Polonius (Bill Murray). And my favorite Ghost (Sam Shepard). It's a modern adaptation, set in NYC, so don't be expecting doublets and capes, lol. <br /><br />The only thing I dislike about it isHamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-17063166998427104002013-04-24T13:25:29.239-04:002013-04-24T13:25:29.239-04:00Hamlette you have me wanting to read Hamlet now. ...Hamlette you have me wanting to read Hamlet now. You have me buying movies and books...LOL Actually, I don't mind at all. I love to read and watch movies. Amazon loves me for that too. <br /><br />I see that Netflix has a movie called Hamlet starring Ethan Hawke. It was made in 2000. Is that one of the Hamlet movies you saw? <br /><br />When I get a passion I am obsessed too.

When I fall in love with something, truly...Thanks!<br /><br />When I fall in love with something, truly madly deeply, I tend to stay in love with it. I've had the same favorite movie since I was two. Only a year or so ago did I finally realize that the book that had been my favorite since I was seven was now really my third-favorite. John Wayne has been my favorite actor since I was probably twelve or thirteen, and Maureen O'Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-60574842908328488152013-04-24T11:10:45.570-04:002013-04-24T11:10:45.570-04:00Ah, to be 33 again!!

NOT doing it the same way again!<br /><br />Anyhow, I hope your birthday marks the beginning of a wonderful new year of life.<br /><br />While I don't have a Hamlet (or Shakespeare) obsession, I admire the fact that it has been a passion for you for nearly 2 decades.

But, even for a person of many passions, the whole <i>Hamlet</i> thing goes above most of my other obsessions. It's probably second only to the Bible in terms of how deeply I connect to it.<br /><br />Trekkies unite! I've seen nearly every Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-79105875653438122302013-04-24T00:15:02.428-04:002013-04-24T00:15:02.428-04:00Happy birthday!
I love that you have something l...Happy birthday! <br /><br />I love that you have something like this that you love so much. I was trying to remember if I had any such thing, and I suppose it would be Jane Austen. I haven't read all the books unfortunately, but I think I've seen all the adaptations multiple times (well, apart from Northanger Abbey from the 80s which I could never finish) and I've read multiple Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.com
