Hamlet

Hamlet is unlike any story I have ever read. Hamlet is by far Shakespeare's longest and most powerful play he had ever written. Hamlet has been acted out on hundreds of the theaters and has produced dozens of motion picture films. Hamlet is a tragedy with an end that will leave you absolutely breathless. The main plot of this story is Hamlet trying to seek revenge for his father’s death. In doing this, Hamlet stumbles into many conflicts.  Along this journey Hamlet falls in love, becomes crazy, commits murder, and falls to his death. Hamlet in the story is not only try to set his father’s sprite free, but ultimately his own.  I admire Hamlet a lot throughout this play. Hamlet is very clever and wise, with that being said, that brings me to my favorite part in Hamlet. My favorite act is when Hamlet takes the letter that was being sent to England and switches the name to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, the letter was addressed to England, explaining how Hamlet is to receive the death penalty. This shows me how intelligent Hamlet truly was. Even though Hamlet had fallen victim at the end of the play, his spirit will live on though the plays and movies we produce.
