Movie Appreciation Group: Hamnett

Watch the movie IN ADVANCE (we don't watch any on the day) then share it with the group to provoke an exciting discussion. Find out more about the movie ie: interesting facts, the characters, music, background info.....there is always much more to learn about a movie.

Hamnet is a historical drama based upon the first 15 years of Agnes and William’s life together. We see them meet, fall in love, and start a family together in Stratford. It introduces us to the magic that seems to swirl around Agnes as well as the clever games their children would play, and how their family life was ultimately an inspiration for Shakespeare the writer. We also see what William and Agnes are willing to sacrifice in order to preserve the happiness of their spouse and family. The entire story becomes the emotional root of Shakespeare’s play Hamlet.

Stay for lunch if you have time, Bumbles is a favourite cafe with delicious food.
