HAMLET

Winner of four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor, Sir Laurence Olivier’s Hamlet continues to be the most compelling version of Shakespeare’s beloved tragedy.

After the smash hit of Henry V, Olivier traded blazing Technicolor for noirish black and white, creating a dark, moody Elsinore (now in HD!) for his quintessential vision of the Bard’s most famous play. It was another worldwide triumph—and the first British film to win the Oscar® for Best Picture.
