Oh, I love this movie. After being introduced to
Hamlet and
Macbeth in high school, I found this movie on TV one day, watched it for Marlon Brando, and fell in love with it--I immediately had to read the play, just for myself. Great film, with an incredible cast, especially Brando--what an actor he was!
