Respect sir,
       
Post viewing 'THINKING  ACTIVITY ON HAMLET'

        Here I am writing my response about Hamlet movie. Hamlet is written by  WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE . Hamlet is  a revenge tragedy of english literature.

Shakespeare was an English poet,

Playwrighter and actor. He was blockbuster  of his day. Some of his most famous work are1)  Macbeth, 2) Romeo and Juliet, 3) Hamlet. 

 This play written in 16th century. We seen movie Hamlet directed by KENNETH BRANAGH on 30th auguAu 2018 .this film is adopting of Shakespeare play Hamlet.

● How faithful is movie  to the original paly ?

 Hamlet by Kenneth Branagh  is a  

Faithful to the Shakespeare paly because in this movie follows  every scene line by line in the real play. This play while we look at setting and character maind situation  as much as similar to the original paly. This play written in 16th century.  derectot role as a Hamlet in this movie.

•  After watching the movie have your perception about paly character or situations change?

Yes After watching the movie

my perception about paly character and situation change. because while watching movie when the ghost scene come and another is i can not imagine ophila's character like this during her madness.and mirror science so that is change.

● Do you feel 'aesthetic delight' while watching the movie? If yes exactly when did it happen? If no can you explain with reasons?

Yes  I feel 'aesthetic delight' during conversation between Hamlet and polonius. And flashback scene of Hamlet and ohelias love. Another is when gravedigger were digging the grave of Ophelia that time they were singing song. then players are performing the play related to the claudis life and his facial expressions.

● Do you feel 'catharsis' while or after watching movie?

Yes I feel 'catarsis' in the movie. While Ophelia become mad. The madness of Ophelia is very miserable. She is innocent and also she get confused about Hamlet's love for her. Ophelia turun to madness because of 3 men in her life. The first is her father .she become puppet of her father. He did not understand that how Ophelia Loves Hamlet.he used against Hamlet. She suffers a lot and when she needs Hamlet in her madness that time he is not with her for support. After these she die.

● Does screening of movie help you in batter understanding of the play? 

Yes screening of the movie helps  me to  batter understanding of the play. Because we reading play and seeing play between vast difference. When we reading tex we have limitations of our imagination. But when I see the movie it helps me to lot .i see a movie i understanding emotions in better way .but if we read only tex we can not imagine some situation.

● was there any particular scene or moment in the movie that you will cherish lifetime?

Yes there are one scene graveyard conversation about skull. he says that the skull of all human being is the same and the condition of all the skull is also same that is resolved in to the earth. It is  the reality of life . It is truth so this scene I will cherish lifetime.

● If you are director het cahmch would you like to make in the remaking of movie on Shakespeare's Hamlet?

If  I am director. I want to get one change that is all are focused on own happiness and problem not focused on his kingdom .they are fight with each other not for his kingdom. No one care about Denmark even king also don't care so that is one change . I will make a active denmark if I am director.

● In the beginning of the movie camera rolls over the statue of king Hamlet outside the Elsinore castle .the more ends with similar sequence wherein the statue of the king Hamlet is hammered down to the dust what  sort of symbolism do you read in this?

 In the beginning of the movie camera rolls on statue that represent king Hamlet is the center in the film. Without he tragedy could not happened. he is  responsible for his  downfall . It is not only downfall of Hamlet also his kingdom.which is symbolically picture in the last scene.at the end time statue if Hamlet shows all are brok doen.

● while studying the play through movie which approach do you find more applicable to the play why ?

While studying the play through movie

Psychological approach both are applicable in the play. Hamlet was student of  philosophy. He fight with himself ' to be or not to be . And faminist approach in Ophelia and Gertrude character.
