Hamnet

“To be or not to be, that is the question.” I have no words. There are few movies that leave me speechless and this one has done it. This movie is so heartbreaking and beautiful, a masterpiece of art and how it can transcend time. It made me think of the quote “what is grief if not love persevering” how one can go through so much grief but still hold so much love in their heart for one person. Jessie Buckley’s performance was truly spectacular and stands true to what the critics are saying. It was breathtaking to watch her. At one point my mom looked over at me and said “I’m mad at you” while we cried together. I wept. Every second of this was incredible, i’m grateful to have witnessed this. I’m grateful to know art can be made about art and it can be just as beautiful. For my 30th movie in the cinema this year it was perfect. I love Shakespeare. It was so beautiful….I will never be watching this again.
