Hi lal,
just wondering about what is done with Ophelia's flowers in her mad scene. I see three kinds of stagings of the flowers as prop and with no prop:
1. No prop: flowers (or anything else) at all (Zeffirelli)
2. Something in place of flowers (polaroid photos in Almereyda)
3. Flowers (Olivier).
Can anyone thinking of any other way the flowers have been used (o rnot) as a prop?
Any compelling film adaptations that come to mind?
