1995 film by Kenneth Branagh about Joe (Michael Maloney), a 33 year-old actor who in something of a crisis decides to produce Hamlet in a disused church in a dying hamlet (ha ha) called Hope. It's shot entirely in black and white, Branagh wrote it himself, it features Richard Briers, Joan Collins, Julie Sawalha, and it's really good, even if it can occasionally feel like a 98-minute trailer for his film version of Hamlet, released the following year.
