1. I do agree with the advice Hamlet gives to the actors about not being overly dramatic, but still having feeling. My favorite players were the mimes in the beginning, because I think it would have been really impressive to see them perform a murder without words, and such an impacting one to send Claudius into shock at that.
2. Hamlet confuses me. I do think he was too hard, I mean, I would never do anything like he is doing and so it's hard for me to relate to him. Overall I think he's an extremely complex character and sometimes I wish he would just wear his emotions and feelings on his sleeve and not try to act one way but feel another. I do think he was too harsh with the others. While he had every right to be angry, he took it too far, and his constant sarcasm is getting old.
3. He feels bad, but at the same time he's proud of the position he has and he doesn't want to give that up. The only way for him to be redeemed is to be verbal about his sin with the country, and take himself out of power.
4. A character flaw in Pride and Prejudice is Darcy's flaw of pride. He overcomes it by the end though, and I think that as Hamlet's anger and emotions keep building, he will stop thinking and he will just act out of feeling.
5. Yes, because Hamlet's seen it before. Plus, he just convinced the Queen that he's not crazy, so he wouldn't just pretend he was seeing a ghost.
