I can’t remember the last time I actually bawled from how moved I was by a movie.

It didn’t really hit me when Hamnet dies, it was until Agnes gets to see the play that Shakespeare created in honor of their son that just opened the tear stream. It’s the way that he puts himself in the place of his son as the one that was taken by the plague that I find deeply moving. The pain, the helplessness, the sorrow, he would take it in a heartbeat if it meant that Hamnet could live.

And, how Agnes reacts right on the last scene where Hamlet (the actor) is dying. She reaches out to him with the same maternal instinct that she had when she tried so hard to keep him alive all those months ago.

Another thing that touched me was how we’ve been to a lot of places in the UK that look similar to where the movie takes place. I feel very blessed and lucky to have had the experiences that I’ve lived. I don’t know how much time I have left, but I really wish that I can continue to enjoy it as much as I can with the person I love the most in the world.

Ah, what a great movie.
