Hamlet Great Performances : Season 19 Episode 3

Arguably Shakespeare's and theatre's greatest work, the tragedy of Hamlet's quest to admonish his uncle and seek revenge for his father's murder remains a breathless, tense and endlessly rich tale that continues to enthrall and inspire. With television director Kirk Browning, Kevin Kline adapts, directs and stars in this indelible production of Shakespeare's most famous play with a daring and depth few of his American contemporaries seem prepared to match.
