Por si alguien se pregunta que implica exactamente que el Hamlet de Branagh contemple el texto íntegro, buen resumen:
Audiences may wonder exactly what the "full script" of "Hamlet" consists of. The play exists in three early printings: the First Quarto (now dismissed as a patchwork put together from memory by actors), the Second Quarto (thought to be from Shakespeare's handwritten manuscript) and the First Folio. The Second Quarto has 230 lines that aren't in the Folio, and the Folio has 70 lines that aren't in the Second Quarto. Branagh has used the Second Quarto as his basic text, adding the lines from the Folio; it's quite possible that this complete a version has never been staged before.
Audiences will see the following rarely staged sequences: all of Claudius's masterly manipulation of Laertes; all of the gravedigger scene, including not only the Second Gravedigger but Hamlet's meditation on at least three skulls prior to Yorick's; all of the conversation between Hamlet and his friends as they go to seek the Ghost, including the "vicious mole of nature" speech; the complete accounts of the military maneuverings of Prince Fortinbras (whom Branagh depicts, on slim textual evidence, as an invader); everything involving the visiting Players, including a conversation about companies of child actors, a contemporary issue that today means nothing to anyone but Shakespeare scholars; and sundry added ends of speeches and restored lines.
