  • Hamlet has just used the players to trick the king into showing guilt for the murder of Hamlet's father. Rosencrantz and Gildenstern come to deliver a message from Hamlet's mother. Hamlet and Horatio are great at Hot Cross Buns.

    Usually when David acts scary, to me his adorableness gets in the way. This was not 1 of those times.

    love this :) i always get happy when producers aren’t afraid to showcase how close hamlet and horatio really were. they were absolute best friends and it makes me a little sad when we don’t see that often in other productions of hamlet

    Tennant sold this performance for me. His acting capacities portrayed Hamlet as he was written: a man in mourning pretending to be insane. Most actors who portray Hamlet do so with far too much solemnity. Tennant puts the humanity and insanity back into the character!

    I think the scene could have been stronger if Rosencrantz & Guildernstern & Polonius were allowed to be strong - instead of just making them stooges for Hamlet's jokes, that he can do & say anything he wants. It becomes tiresome.

      While I don't disagree that the comedy in this part isn't very funny, this scene does follow the text. I was checking the text as they went along cause I read your comment and thought "that's not the way I remember it" but it's the full Shakespeare.

      Shakespeare didn't write Rosencrantz & Guildenstern as strong characters - they are ineffectual and pretty much their sole function, outside of the plot, is to be the butt of Hamlet's jokes. You can't blame the director or actors for this, it's Shakespeare's fault.
