I know Romeo and Juliet is much better known, and it's certainly beautiful to look at (to say nothing of Nino Rota's GORGEOUS score), but Hamlet is by far my favorite of Zeffirelli's Shakespeare films. For one thing, I think the acting is far superior. Helena Bonham Carter and Paul Scofield steal the show!
