Hamlet is a 1920 film adaptation of the William Shakespeare play Hamlet starring Danish silent film legend Asta Nielsen. In this interpretation, inspired by Dr. Edward P. Vining's book The Mystery of Hamlet, Hamlet is born female and disguised as a male to preserve the lineage. Though a radical interpretation, the New York Times said this film, "holds a secure place in class with the best." (11/9/1921) Directed by Svend Gade & Heinz Schall full article at wikipedia
