In contrast to Sir Laurence Olivier's brasher, more youthful performance in 1948, Gielgud's version is resigned, traditional, declamatory; but it emerges as a memorable reading. All in all, from the creepy wind sighings and distant bells on the battlements of Elsinore in the first scene to the swordplay and slaughter of the last...
