Hamnet + Reclaim the Frame introduction

<b>This screening will have an introduction from Reclaim the Frame, which will reflect on the power of community and nature, as depicted through this magnificently crafted tale.</b> <i>Hamnet</i> is the poignant and powerful tale of love and loss that inspired William Shakespeare to write his classic tragedy, <i>Hamlet</i>. Directed by Academy Award-winner Chloé Zhao (<i>Nomadland</i>) who co-wrote the film with Maggie O'Farrell, author of the novel it is adapted from, the film features two more potential Oscar-winning performances from Irish actors Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal as Agnes (Anne in real life) Hathaway and William Shakespeare. Emily Watson and Joe Alwyn star in supporting roles as William's mother and Agnes' brother, along with 12-year-old Jacobi Jupe as the couple's titular son, and his brother Noah as the Bard's Hamlet. <i>Hamnet</i>, produced by a selection of Hollywood heavyweights including Steven Spielberg and Sam Mendes, scooped up several awards on the festival circuit this year including the Audience Award for Best Feature at the BFI London Film Festival and the People's Choice Award at Toronto International Film Festival.DramaPT2H6M12A2026-01-11
