Hamnet: Directed by Chloé Zhao. With Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Zac Wishart, James Lintern. This is the story of Agnes and Will. She is a healer, he is a writer. It is also the story of their children: Susanna, their firstborn, and their twins, Judith and Hamnet. It's also the story of their small village in 16th century England. More to the point, it's a story of the lives, and especially the deaths from plague, in their times. The story is told from the viewpoint of Agnes, and therein lies its power.
