"Hamnet is a true work of art that, despite its slow march and some more challenging moments for the uninitiated, rewards perseverance.
It's a film about how pain destroys, but also about the miracle of how art can serve as a vessel for redemption or, at least, for understanding. Chloé Zhao took an empty space in history — the life of a forgotten woman and the silence of a lost son — and filled it with an emotion that's, ultimately, a testament to the power of creation.
It's proof that the greatest tragedy in literature was, in fact, born from the greatest possible act of family love and memory."
