Restored 'Hamlet' to premiere at Berlin fest


January 18, 2007 COLOGNE, Germany -- A rediscovered and now restored color version "Hamlet" (1920/21), featuring silent film diva Asta Nielsen as the cross-dressing prince of Denmark, will have its world premiere at the 57th Berlin International Film Festival. The Berlin Festival will show both versions of the Italian classic, the 1914 silent version and the 1931 sound version, which had been thought lost, on Feb. 17 and Feb. 18. Both films fit nicely with Berlin's Retrospective this year, which focuses on images of women in the silent film era.
