Re: What are your favorite adaptations of classic literature?

I absolutely hate Hamlet as a character and think he's too whiny. But one of my favorite movies is the Indian adaptation of Hamlet, Haider, that's set in mid-1990s Kashmir. The political situation makes it so that the female characters have more autonomy - Ophelia is a journalist and has the ability to move more (literally and figuratively) than the male characters do. The way they handle the "ghost" of the king is also really interesting.

I like the Indian adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, Ram-Leela too. It's set in Rajasthan and the families are competing gun runners. Ram/Romeo runs a porn/adult store, and Leela/Juliet is next in line to take over as the godmother of the family. Leela's mother is a ferocious mob boss. The cinematography is beautiful, and the leads have lots of sexy chemistry.

Yeah, they're both fantastic films, but very different energies.

They're both available online with English subtitles:
