I've never read Hamlet...But I've seen Kenneth Branagh's version with his spiffy blond hair! And I've watched the Reduced Shakespeare Company perform it. *G* Does this count?
My school was weird, none of us had to read Hamlet in High School, but we all had to read Macbeth. o.O The trees, they move!
I've not seen it, sadly. I want to but I always forget. His Henry V, though, is one of my fave films. And yes, watching is just as good as reading in this case, and the Reduced Shakespeare Co are very worthy in any case!
I like Macbeth, but it's a damn sight more gruesome than Hamlet, really. Revenge is much easier to stomach than overweening ambition!
