Its strats when Hamlet sees the ghost. Hamlet talks to him and the ghost says how Hamlet's uncle killed the old king. Hamlet can hardly believe and doesnt even want to believe it. Then the ghost disappears and Hamlet meets Horatio. Horatio wants to know what the ghost told Hamlet. Hamlet tells him but Horatio and his friends have to swear several times that they wont tell anyone the secret. Then there is a scene with Polonius and his friend Reynaldo. Polonius is asking Reynaldo if he could go and check up on his son who lives in France. Then there is a scene with Polonius, the king and the queen. Polonius explains Hamlet's maddness by saying that he fell in love with his daughter, Ophelia. The queen is against that and disagrees. Then she says "The reason why Hamlet is mad is because of his father's death and because I married the new king!"
Today we read few pages from Hamlet, which for me was a bit difficult because I didnt read the first ones. So i read the whole thing again. So far I understood that Horatio and other friends of Hamlet saw the king's spirit. When they tell Hamlet, he doesnt believe them but still wants to find out the truth. Of course when Oratio and his friend see it they cant believe it and are amazed. Then Oratio is also there and someone tells her that she shouldnt show any emotion while she is with Hamlet. This is so far what I understood, its not much but its pretty hard to understand..
Thanks for the book again!!!!
Hamlet During English class we started to watch Hamlet. The starting showed a coffin with Hamlet’s father in. Hamlet’s mother was in a really big emotion, she couldn’t believe that her husband is dead. There was also Hamlet’s uncle which didn’t really care about his brother’s death because he knew he is going to the throne afterwards. After few weeks Hamlet’s mother marries Hamlet’s uncle who becomes the new king. Hamlet’s mom is now happy and telling Hamlet that life has to go on. He still doesn’t like it because his uncle took the throne. The uncle makes Hamlet’s mother to do everything he tells her but she doesn’t recognizes that. The uncle uses her to get closer to Hamlet and get Hamlet to believe and follow his uncle as well. Hamlet wants to leave the palace in Denmark but then his mom persuades him to stay. The movie is a bit harder to understand but you get most of the content by just watching it.
