Christophe Montenez me dévoile les coulisses de la Comédie-Française

He is one of the most compelling faces at the Comédie-Française. Christophe Montenez plays Hamlet in Ivo van Hove's production, currently playing at the Odéon. How does one inhabit such a legendary role? How does one portray doubt, madness, and revenge without ever resorting to easy solutions? A candid conversation about theater, doubt… and what it means to remain a living artist. Tell me in the comments what you thought of the episode!
