Ophelia: The Forgotten Character

.... come’s not from shock, but from confusion over his sudden change of mood and attitude toward her since the Nunnery Scene. She of course has no idea of the state he is in, and it is possible that she thinks his condition has indeed been caused by her following her father's instructions and refusing to see him. In the conflict between her love for Hamlet and her duty of obedience to her father's orders, she grants to Polonius' wishes.

Ophelia: The Forgotten Character

.... it is his sense of outrage at Ophelia, that she could place obedience to her father before her love for him” (194). Hamlet does not understand her obedience to Polonius.

Review Of Musical Singin In The Rain

.... Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds). She is amazed but plays it cool, pretending not to recognise Don and putting down the talents of movie actors. Although Kathy pretends to be a real stage actress, her abilities become obvious to Don when she leaps out of a cake at the after-show party. An even bigger upset occurs when studio owner R.F. Simpson (Millard Mitchell) shows a new talking picture, which is dismissed as a passing fad (commenting that Warner Brothers will "lose their shirts with The Jazz Singer"). .....

Madness In Macbeth And Hamlet

.... his actions and thoughts catch him and slowly turn him insane. Not to say that he was a crazed madman out of touch with reality as was Ophelia, but a man driven crazy by thought. Hamlet's behavior throughout the play, especially towards Ophelia is inconsistent. He jumps into Ophelia's grave, and fights with Laertes in her grave. He professes "I loved Ophelia. Forty thousand brothers/Could not, with all their quantity of love,/ Make up my sum" [HV, I,250-253], during the fight with Laertes in Ophelia's .....

Hamlet: Playing The Roles

.... I appear to be." Later in act I, Hamlet makes a clear statement about his state when he commits himself to revenge. In this statement the play makes an easy to follow shift. This shift consists of Hamlet giving up the role of a student and mourning son. Hamlet says, "I'll wipe away all trivial fond records, All saws of books, all forms, all pressures past, That youth and observation copied there, And thy commandment all alone shall live Within the book and volume of my brain" (1.5.99-103). Hamlet .....

Who Loves Lucy? I Do, I Do!

.... a bit closer, the show can be seen as a prelude to the women’s movement that would follow decades later. If the show were just about how life was in the 50’s, it would not be as popular as it is today. Imagine Lucy Ricardo, being the typical housewife of that time, where all she did was stay at home and take care of the baby while cooking Ricky’s dinner. It would not make a very interesting show during any time period. It is Lucy’s outright defiance of her role in society that makes the show so h .....
