And I loved Hamnet.
It's a movie that really, really stays with you depending on some of the life experience that you've had.
Hamnet is about William Shakespeare.
He had a son whose name was Hamnet.
He had a son.
Yeah, but I don't know what the hell it's about, Dave.
It's got Hamnet.
I've never heard that word in my life.
I just want the plot, Dave.
Yeah, I don't think.
If you want to know nothing at all about Hamnet, shut your ears for the next five seconds.
Who goes into a movie knowing nothing?
I just want the plot.
Well, like, I mean, part of this is also like history.
Yeah, so wait, starting now.
William Shakespeare's son dies and he writes Hamlet as an ode to his soul and his memory.
And William Shakespeare's wife watches this performance for the first time and goes through a whole range of emotions.
But it's really about William Shakespeare's wife.
Why is it called Hamnet?
That's what I'm saying.
