Na dánském hradu Elsinor se začne zjevovat duch bývalého panovníka. Když se setká s princem Hamletem, prozradí mu strašlivé tajemství: Claudius, dánský král, získal trůn zákeřnou vraždou svého předchůdce. Hamlet přislíbí otcovu duchu pomstu a tím začne neúprosný sled mnoha tragických událostí. Tato divadelní hra se dočkala dlouhé řady filmových zpracování, i když ani jedno nedokázalo dosáhnout dokonalé úrovně a filozofické hloubky originálu. Slavný Hamletův monolog o životě a jeho smyslu se stal nedílnou součástí evropské kultury.
As both star and director of the acclaimed film Henry V, young Branagh has had his career compared to that of Lawrence Olivier. Full of charm, humor, and insight into an actor's craft, Branagh's intriguing autobiography tells of his childhood in Belfast, his training at the Royal Academy of Drama, and his work with the Royal Shakespeare Company.
Kenneth Branagh's much praised adaptation of HENRY V revolutionised Shakespeare in the cinema, giving a new youthful and contemporary energy to a well-known play and bringing it to a vast audience around the world. He has now directed and adapted MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, with a starry international cast that includes Denzil Washington, Emma Thompson, Michael 'Batman' Keaton, Ben Elton, Keanu Reaves as Don John, and of course Kenneth Branagh himself as Benedick. Lavishly illustrated with stills from the film, and with a foreword about the film and screenplay by Kenneth Branagh, MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING will bring exciting new dimensions to one of Shakespeare's most mature and sophisticated comedies, and serve as a lasting souvenir of the film.
