...Other than the political quibbles, London critics were mostly rapturous about this modern-dress revival. ?Go and see Trevor Nunn?s ?Hamlet?,? one wrote. ?In forty years? time you will be able to tell the grandchildren that you saw Ben Whishaw?s first great role.? In black garb, with a thin white face, his crimson lips the only color in his array, Whishaw does attract attention.
