http://thehamletweblog.blogspot.com/2014/04/forty-five-hamlets.html
Thursday, April 24, 2014. Yesterday for Shakespeare's birthday, The Guardian published forty-five images of Hamlet from various productions.

Michael Billington also offered his suggestions for the best of each the decades in his career. I still maintain my favourite's been Natalie Quatermass. Posted by Stuart Ian Burns.

The Hamlet Weblog featuring Shakespeare Blogs: Shakespeare at the British Pathe Archive: Happy Birthday!
http://thehamletweblog.blogspot.com/2014/04/shakespeare-at-british-pathe-archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Shakespeare at the British Pathe Archive:. Today would have been Shakespeare's 450th birthday, so to celebrate let's delve again into the Pathe archive to see how it was marked in earlier years. Essentially it's a history of the traditional tour around Stratford. We begin in 1920. You'll notice as we continue through these that Stratford doesn't much change across the century. Our first proper glimpse of the flag raising ceremony in 1930. Sixty-four nations at this point. As yo...

http://thehamletweblog.blogspot.com/2014/04/hamlet-at-british-pathe-archive.html
Saturday, April 19, 2014. Hamlet at the British Pathe Archive. As you might have heard, British Pathe have taken the rather epic decision to upload much of their archive to Youtube. Around eighty-five thousand news reels. With that sort of breadth of coverage, most subjects and topics are featured and Hamlet is no exception. A shot from the 1913 version of Shakespeare's 'Hamlet' starring Sir Johnstone Forbes Robertson. Screen Online has a short essay about the production. And Folger Shakespeare Library.
