week 10

Branagh VS Gibson easy peasy I am with Branagh why? Because he was more true the book in my opinion he was more what Shakespeare would have liked to seen. Branagh had everything he fallowed the script line very well in his movie. Gibson however did not his lines were very short and to me if you want to get a really true feeling of Hamlet you shouldn't cut his lines away because that weakens his character.  Branagh's acting of Hamlet is more dramatic and accurate he shows more of madness and drama on Hamlet's side the speeches were said in a stronger way it made more existing. Now the Gibson version was not dramatic at all it only focuses on Hamlet talking to himself. There was hardly any action and very little drama.  This tolled me that the Gibson version was just plain boring.
