Bernhardt/Hamlet/Rebeck Spoilers
Posted by: stan 07:56 pm EDT 09/02/18

I didn't hate it, but it was all over the place and more annoying than good. The play deals with Bernhardt wanting to rewrite Hamlet because she can't play it as written -- of course it was the French translation of Hamlet to start with -- whose? Anyway, perhaps McTeer is a tremendously gifted actor and can play a famous actress who really can't do Shakespeare, or (as I think) McTeer (most of whose work I admire) can't do Shakespeare??? Bernhardt's Hamlet was well received by the audiences but not by many critics -- which may be continued by this version.
