The First scene

 In Ms. Mergott's class we started to read a book that was read though the ages.The book was Halmet  by William Shakespeare  it is very famous. We had saw three verisons of Halmet movies which were all amazing. As a class we could see how different each and every director protraded the movie with the way they thought it happen. My personal favorite was the Third Version Director: (Michael) Almereyda   Hamlet: (Ethan) Hawke. The third verison ghost scene was amazing to me. The way they have symbols to show that Halmet's father was in purgatory. The fireplace showed hell and how its evil.  Ethan Hawke played Halmet very well, the way he showed his emotions and the way he was scared and couldn't believe that his father was in front of his eyes. The director chose another way to show how the father soul was. I liked how he was covering the ear that his brother posioned him in and also, how he grabbed his son not just stayed in front on him.
