This screenplay, introduction, and film diary for the Kenneth Branagh production was just fascinating. It's the entire text of Hamlet as a film script, complete with film shots and stage directions. Very interesting.

This is part of the Pendulum Illustrated Series. It is perfect for high school students. The book is a comic version of the story. Yet, famous quotes are often left intact as written by Shakespeare himself. Includes vocabulary list and discussion questions at the end of the book.
