Hamlet (1990) (DVD)

Hamlet (1990) (DVD) Mel Gibson leads an all-star cast in William Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, the story of Danish prince Hamlet. Hamlet (Academy Award winner Gibson--Braveheart, Lethal Weapon films) returns home to learn that his father, the King, has recently died and his mother, Gertrude (Glenn Close--The Stepford Wives, Fatal Attraction), has already married his uncle, Claudius (Alan Bates--Gosford Park). Suffering from shock and grief, the young prince is visited by the ghost of his father (Paul Scofield--Quiz Show), who claims that he was murdered by Claudius and who demands vengeance. Now, Hamlet must decide whether this tale told by an apparition is true--and whether he should exact the vengeance his father demands . . . realizing that his actions may destroy the woman he loves, Ophelia (Helena Bonham Carter--Corpse Bride, Howards End), his family and the kingdom he is due to inherit. ]]>
