Opheliplia

Ophelia is portrayed in John Everett Millais painting as pleasant. Dead in water she is still represented with the flowers as if morned for her death. Ophelia with eyes and mouth open her death is sudden but not done with out cause. The artist imbues his own vision of Ophelia as innocent. A Young women who was taken much to soon but death came for a cause.

Shakespeare intended Ophelia to be portrayed as misdemeanor. Often changing sides she is never sure of what she is to do. The last moments of her life were simple she was picking flowers. In the movie she seems to look as if she wants to jump and the sense we get from the book shows the same thing she is tired of feeling unsure and looks for the simple way out of it. Gertrude did watch her struggle as her clothes weighed her down.

 

I believe the reason for her madness is the constant struggle with her father and Hamlet. She loves a man she is not allowed to love. The more she is told to stay away the closer she wants to be. Contributed to her demise would be how he father told her not to have sexually relations with Hamlet and she has already had them. She is struck with the unsure of both family and love. I do feel sorry for her, she is stuck in the middle and the longer she stays there the father away both sides pull leaving her all alone. If i was directing the play i would also represent her the same way. The playing with the bones in the "rubber" room or the looks her family gives off to her behavior. All these scenes tied together paint the bigger picture that with out Hamlet her life would of been different.

invisbile children

The invisible children assembly proved to be more rateable then i had first thought. The speaker started out giving basic information on the cause for the nation tour as she continued to speak we gathered more fundamental information for the video they showed next. During the video they focused on a single boy named Tony. Tony was the average student and the average African American boy he had no father and his mother was HIV positive. This is one child in the vast amount of children who loose a mother father or even sibling to this disease. The problems he encounters next is why his story seemed to touch most of us. Supported by a lady he continues with his schooling and no longer has to hid at night form the army. He is the prime example to how you can grow from experiences. Developing relationships with the founder of the invisible children Tony is the main reason and push to showing many Americans that change is needed. His "brother" Nate gave his life trying to show America how even an ocean away they still matter and therefore they deserve to live the life we Americans live.

Ghost

The ghost scenes for Hamlet have all displayed different points. From dark scenes to more cheerful ones each actor used their own interpertions to change the way the audience relates to the diaologe. The first movie with Mel, was set in the dark. The words were more drawn out and the character of ghost and hamlet were not close together so the connect wasn't as clear in a relationship as movie 3. The second movie was placed in modern times it used props to dramatize the scene example, hankerchief to the eat to show how his brain has become liquor with the possioning. But my favorite scene was the second movie. It used props and dark seceny to tie in all aspects If the play. The language was drawn out but displayed more of a pause to the audience in suspense.
