What year was this filmed?
We're reading Hamlet in Shakespeare right now, and today we watched different versions of this scene. Each version gave me chills! It's like you're seeing someone else's mind as they're trying to choose b/w life and death.

Personally along with Kenneth Brannagh and Ethan Hawke's interpretation, this is the best version of "To Be or Not to Be".

I wish I were in your shoes. I have to recite a complete, randomly selected, play backwards, while juggling four knives and riding a unicycle over a tightrope. That is only if I survive an underwater straight jacket escape.

my question: the acting is obviously good, but why would he need the dagger for dramatic effect if he was already up on that high wall? Couldn't death be symbolized in the drop alone? the dagger seems unnecessary

Well, since he refers to it in the soliloquy (bare bodkin), he probably thought it best to have it in hand (maybe for those who would not get it otherwise).

No not entirely. Hamlet's soliloquy is about the contemplation of suicide. You could say that action vs. inaction plays a role in his contemplation, he curses himself for being indecisive, but the soliloquy is about his suicide.
