Hamlet was actually about how much of a worthless chud father Shakespeare was and how he was a worthless author if not for his brilliant wife

Is anyone else fucking sick and tired of the narrative that "the women in these men's lives actually did all the heavy lifting! that's right chud, even though she didn't write any plays, she basically did because uhh, because she just did, okay?!!" I've had enough. The only instance I've seen this done well is Three Colors: Blue.

That isn’t what the film was about. That also wasn’t implicit in the film. Remember when (whatever the fake name they gave Anne Hathaway was) said that her husband had to go to London and get out of the village or he’d die? What about when she went to his humble lodgings in London and was shocked that he lived like a priest while they had servants and a manor? Much of modern writing and film is gender war nonsense but I think Hamnet is an outlier. I also think that is one of the reasons it is successful—it acknowledges gender difference. As a father, Shakespeare cannot understand what it is like to lose a child because mothers have different connections to their children, but he had to be away from his family, working in the big city so that his family could be cared for. There are two kinds of sacrifices and two kinds of losses. It’s quite clear. It isn’t women vs men. But two perspectives that are seemingly untenable, but the art of theatre can at least express the masculine view in a way that connects with feminine intuition and feeling. But keep being a gay retard. And please only respond saying that I misunderstood the film if you are an indian or a yid.

It took two modern people and pretended that they were Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway. It also grossly misrepresented Hamlet itself as a play. No idea how you can enjoy this piece of shit as a fan of Shakespeare’s works.

I’m not defending the film as a great work of art and I’m not defending it as being true to reality or being a good representation of Hamlet. The film is twice removed from the truth being that it is based on a novel that editorializes biographical aspects of Shakespeare’s life for the sake of a dramatic narrative. I didn’t read that chick-lit and I have no plans on doing so. Maybe the film was true to the book on which it was based, but I do not know. I am simply defending the charges against the film as laid out in this thread, namely that this film is just an ideological vessel for more gender war nonsense, which is what the first two posts in this thread are accusing it of. I did not think the take away was “Shakespeare’s wife did the real heavy lifting, she deserves more credit.” and I don’t think this was implicit in the film, despite what the first two posters in this thread claim.

This post wasn’t me. Just some anon trolling.
