Hamlet - Act 2

We started our day with a discussion of our favorite movies and the best scenes from them. Why? Because in Act 2, scene 2 the Players appeared, sharing a performance of one of Hamlet's favorite scenes. Soon this becomes much more than just something to watch and enjoy as it serves as inspiration for an idea, the means to an end.  For the next two days we'll be watching the film version of it in E116.

In class we made a list of the 8+ events in act 2, scene 2 - be sure you are keeping track of these. Any one of them may be an inspiration for a journal response!
