Response to Hamlet

I thought this was a really good play. It had a lot of poetic lines in it and moral. It had a bad ending because everyone died, and I don't like books or plays that the end turns out really rubish and not going how I expect it to. I didn't know it was a tragedy until after I read it in class. William Shakespeare had a really modern view of teenagers. It was an everlasting view. The problem was though that hamlet was 20 when your 20 you are supposed to be more mature..... Apparently the play was played by not only actors but actresses too. One famous Hamlet was Edwin Booth, he was related to John Wilkes Booth. I don't think I spelt that right. Hamlet had some serious come-back skills, he was just smashing down the Queen and Ophelia the whole play. I really like a painting of the play called The Grave Digger Scene by Eugene Delacroix . There are too similar plot lined stories, one is The Scandinavian Saga of Hrolf Kraki and The legend of Brutus. These are freaky similar. Hoping that we do this play for the end of the unit, because I think our class will enjoy fighting and getting to die.
