Hamnet plot
"Keep your heart open."
This is the story of Agnes and William. She is a healer, and he is a famous writer. It is also the story of their children: Susanna, their firstborn, and their twins, Judith and Hamnet. Their small village in 16th-century England is also featured. Moreover, the lives and especially the deaths from the plague of their time are central. Everything is told from Agnes's perspective.

Very heavy. Zhao's influence is most evident in the sometimes dreamy images. The film is also visually beautiful in these moments. And when there's a subtle zoom-out (on Agnes sitting in the garden, followed by a subtly zoomed-in shot of Shakespeare by the water), there's something visually appealing. But otherwise, there are many dark scenes and static shots that aren't necessarily ugly, but rather dull. And that's what I found in the drama, which didn't really do much for me. Buckley is sometimes endearing, but too often verges on the theatrical. Mescal is better, but a bit colorless. And so the film meanders along for over two hours without it really doing anything for me. 2.0*.
