Prince Maker, The

Synopsis: Television arts documentary. Prior to the opening of Franco Zeffirelli’s Italian production of Hamlet at the National Theatre, London, Zeffirelli is seen directing the scene between Hamlet and Gertrude (III iv), with John Stride and Pamela Brown, intercut with the same scene in Zeffirelli’s Italian production, filmed in Italy. A brief but well executed film with an entertaining exchange between Stride and Zeffirelli over differences in interpretation. The Italian film is conventional.
