Also, Hamnet is the same name as Hamlet as you will see while watching the movie. I can see why it is an oscar contender and likely has won awards already because it is very well done. We watched it for prime for I think around $20 to rent it.
If you watch this movie just be prepared to watch a child die and to see the effects on his family. So, if you don't deal with Death well at all this is something to think about.

Hamnet Shakespeare, the only son of William Shakespeare, died at age 11 in August 1596, with the exact cause unknown
.
While parish records do not specify, historians often speculate his
death resulted from the plague, which was rampant at the time, or a
common childhood illness. He was buried in Stratford-upon-Avon on August
11, 1596.Key details regarding the death of Hamnet Shakespeare:
- Cause of Death: Unknown. While the plague is frequently cited as a likely cause due to high mortality rates in the era, there is no definitive documentation.
- Date and Location: He died in Stratford-upon-Avon and was buried on August 11, 1596, at the age of 11.
- Context: Approximately one-third of all children in England at that time died before the age of 10, making high child mortality common.
- Family Impact: Hamnet was the twin brother of Judith. His death is often linked by scholars to the intense themes of grief, loss, and death in Shakespeare's later plays, such as Hamlet.
It
is not known if William Shakespeare was present at the time of his
son's death, as he was likely in London working as a playwright.
