 Hamlet (1948) review by Groucho
The production design by Roger K. Furse, art direction by Carmen Dillon and black and white cinematography by Desmond Dickinson are so moody that they nearly speak lines of their own, while the score by William Walton accompanies perfectly.
Hamlet’s conversations with his dead father, the staging of his father’s murder, the madness of Ophelia, the reflections of a gravedigger, the swordfight with Laertes (Terence Morgan), all unforgettable scenes.
Other standouts are Terence Morgan as the mischievous Polonius, and a young Peter Cushing as Osric.
