Hamlet : Film Comparison
Kenneth Branagh Vs Gregory Doran
Hamlet, a play written by the famous William Shakespeare has effected the world especially in the media field. Famous directors Kenneth Branagh and Gregory Doran each made a movie based on William Shakespeare Hamlet. Kenneth Branagh directed a 1996 version of Hamlet while Gregory Doran directed a 2009 version of Hamlet. These movies did have various similarities in the scenes, while some scenes in the Hamlet movies were portrayed differently from each other as well. In Hamlet Act 1 Scene 5, Kenneth Branagh and Gregory Doran each had a different view on how they would portray this scene. Branagh has Hamlet,Horatio, and Marcellus in a creepy looking dark forest while Gregory Doran uses a dark foggy room with some moonlight. The interesting thing about Branagh version of Hamlet is that he uses different settings throughout the whole film while Doran version of Hamlet goes back to using the dark foggy room in later scenes in the movie. These two directors each had a unique way to portray the ghost of Hamlet Sr. as they both had different views on how he should look,speak, and act. Gregory Doran gets the same actor to act as King Claudius and Hamlet Sr. Ghost to get the viewers thinking on why that director did something like that while Branagh uses different actor to be both Claudius and Hamlet Sr. Ghost. The ghost of Hamlet Sr. had a intimidating look in Branagh's version while Gregory Doran gives the ghost of Hamlet Sr. a less intimidating look. In Doran version of Hamlet, there was no usage of flashbacks unlike Branagh's version, where the viewers get to see Hamlet Sr. die in front of his own brother Claudius and his past life as well. They each both had a different taste in music for the settings, Branagh uses more relaxing music while Doran uses music that would instill fear into the viewers watching this scene. We can conclude that even though the movies were portrayed in different ways, its was interesting to see that both movies were not exactly similarity as well
