The Uneasy Truth about Hamnet

In this video essay I explore Hamnet by Chloé Zaho as a film about the loss of a child, grief and life. This analysis looks at the storytelling and the difference between Agnes and William’s grief and why this film gets grief right. It's part of my series where I talk about cinema and TV through the lens of art. I'm not reviewing the film in the classic sense, but trying to understand what Hamnet says about life, grief and the beauty of loving each other. Spoilers ahead. Welcome my dear friend, tonight let's sit for a while and talk about stories. This is a safe space to get a little lost inside of this world, together.    / @arsgratiaartis0   If you want to help me support this channel, I'll leave a link here to buy the book Hamnet and the screenplay of Hamlet: https://amzn.to/4u1y5lH https://amzn.to/4r61mZG Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:46 Writing and showing grief 03:53 It gets grief right 07:11 The end #hamnet #cinema #videoessay
