People who are better versed in such things than I am: Planning to watch some version of Hamlet this week (read it and watched snippets in high school, but it's been...a while) as research for a writing project. Which version should I go with? #TheatreSky

I'll just be unpopular here and say that the 2000 version with Ethan Hawke is underrated because Julia Stiles did more interesting things with Ophelia than Kate Winslet did. But as Kevin Kline said when asked about his Hamlet vs. Branagh's: "Ken's is much longer, and it's uncut."
