Personal Impressions
Scene 1: The queen has no control. Claudius has taken over. The queen sees Hamlet's guilt for killing Polonius and in a way tries to let her mind speak; lets Claudius know Hamlet is taking the body away from the room. Scene 2: Hamlet "Ay, sir, that soaks up the King's contenace, his rewards,... It is but squeezing you and, sponge, you shall be dry again." I like the whole speech Hamlet gives them because he sort of makes the look like fools bacuse the king is using them. Scene 3: Hamlet is so funny in this scene. He is turning his murder into a game. He's acting as so nothing serious has happened. He tries to make Claudius feel stupid about himself by doing these games. Scene 4: Fortinbras tells the captain to remind the Danish of long march. Hamlet talks to the captain about fighting the Polish. Hamlet gives a long dialogue. Scene 6: Hamlet and horatio: They must be close to one another because who else would Hamlet feel comfertable and confident with to send a letter to? Horatio seems willing to help or do what Hamlet has asked in his letter. Scene 7: Claudius: Why tell Laertes that you love Gurtrude so much you won't kill Hamlet, but you then, later on, help Laertes to plan Hamlets death? Ophelia: Why choose such a way to die? Was it really for Hamlet or because Hamlet killed your father? |
