On Saturday 10th December 1960, in the late afternoon, a second son was born, Kenneth Charles. It was about ten minutes to five and apparently I was just in time for the football results. Actor, writer, director, producer, winner of hearts, wearer of unusual facial hair, theatre company founder, interpreter of universal stories, player of guitar and piano, tap dancer, rocker of grey hair. Just a bit of a great bloke, really. Run by Jenna Sidebar gif by Branaghing. Follow my blog with Bloglovin

I have investigated many crimes. But this has altered the shape of my soul. I am detective Hercule Poirot and I will deliver your killer.

Kenneth Branagh costumes [2/?] → Hamlet’s black military uniform (+ shorter jacket variation) in Hamlet (1996)
“Branagh’s Hamlet is conceived as a soldier. When we first encounter him, he is dressed in a trim black military uniform, in stunning contrast to the white and gold glitter of Claudius and his court. […] Branagh’s Hamlet is distinguished by having taken his cue from Fortinbras’s final pronouncement that he should have a soldier’s funeral, for had he been "put on” he should have proved “most royal.” Branagh’s Hamlet, like his military uniform, is neat, trim, precise. He has a racing mind and a keen wit. He is interested in fencing lessons taking place at the court, and one can believe this Hamlet when he boasts to Horatio that “I shall win at the odds” in the match with Laertes. If he has a dark side, it is his military alter ego: Rufus Sewell’s Fortinbras.“ - Samuel Crowl, Shakespeare at the Cineplex: The Kenneth Branagh Era
