La tragédie de William Shakespeare.
Sur les remparts d'Elseneur, Hamlet voit apparaître le spectre de son père, ex roi du Danemark, qui lui révèle qu'il a été empoisonné pendant son sommeil par son frère Claudius avec la complicité de son épouse, la reine Gertrude. Le régicide lui a donc ravi sa femme, le trône et la vie. Afin de le venger, le jeune prince simule la folie et délaisse sa fiancée Ophélie. Au cours d'une explication avec sa mère, Hamlet croyant tuer l'usurpateur poignarde le chambellan Polonius. Sa fille, Ophélie devient folle et se suicide en se jetant dans une rivière. Laertes voulant venger son père provoque Hamlet en duel. Claudius pour être sûr de l'élimination de son neveu fournit une épée dont l'extrémité a trempé dans le poison au frère d'Ophélie. Au cours du combat les fleurets changent de main et Hamlet, bien que blessé, atteint Laertes, qui à l'agonie lui explique le plan machiavélique de son beau-père. Hamlet assassine Claudius tandis que sa mère meurt en buvant le breuvage empoisonné qui était réservé à son fils., 1h33
