Winner of four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor, Sir Laurence Olivier's ``Hamlet'' continues to be the most compelling version of Shakespeare's beloved tragedy. Olivier is at his most inspired - both as director and as the melancholy Dane himself - as he breathes new life into the words of one of the world's greatest dramatists.
