Vu en solo au majestic Bruxelles Tres beau film Qui tire un peu trop au sentimentalisme Un peu trop centré sur la mère Première partie un peu ennuyante ou on se demande meme pourquoi c’est important qu’on soit chez Shakespeare Mais on comprends tout après et ca prends tout son sens Et qu'elle beauté le pouvoir du theatre Tres belle relecture de Hamlet vis a vis du drame familial c’est beau Scene magnifique du fils qui vient dormir avec sa sœur malade Et fin magique où la mère se rend compte que son drame est collectif

Viewers are deeply moved by 'Hamnet,' praising its emotional depth and the stellar performances, particularly by Jessie Buckley. The film's portrayal of profound themes like grief and love, combined with its stunning visuals and sound design, has left many in tears and in awe. The narrative's focus on Agnes rather than Shakespeare offers a fresh perspective, though some found the pace slow and the story slightly melodramatic at times.
👍 Exceptional acting and emotional depth
👎 Some found the pacing slow and overly sentimental
