9 - Hamlet 2000
Added 2021-09-01 13:00:09 +0000 UTCThere’s something rotten in the CORPORATION of Denmark??? Josh (@boshj), Brian (@spocks_brian), and A.J. (@TheFuzzyMask) whip out their bodkins and throw themselves headlong into the morose, brooding world of literal corporate backstabbing that is Michael Almereyda's Hamlet (2000). They dissect the cultural significance of Mr. Moviefone, the perils and pitfalls of adapting Shakespeare for the screen, and the surreal perfection of contemplating one’s mortality in a Blockbuster.

Hamlet 2000 is on the Criterion Channel this month, which begs the question: does it temporarily qualify as a Fancy Movie, and if so, is it a fancy feast or a failure to fancy?
