Horatio, Marcellus and Bernardo have heard him say that he "will put an antic disposition on", but neither they nor can any member of the audience be absolutely sure how much of Hamlet's insanity is put on and how much is real. The question forms one of the eternal debates about this play.
Yes the ghost only speaks to Hamlet. The others can see him but cannot hear him. When the ghost visits Hamlet in his mother's closet, his mother can neither see nor hear him.
Yeah, cause Hamlet's a dork
Laertes is, in a way, doubly Hamlet's foil since he not only kills Hamlet (can't get more foil-ish than that!), but he does so with a foil - a fencing sword - pun intended or not.
hamlet is upset with his mother because she remarried only 2 months after his father's death.
Not both of the twins died. Only Hamlet died at the age of 11. No one knows for sure how he died but some say that he was very ill. The other twin Judith married and had no children.Hope this helps :)
Whether Hamlet runs around the throne room is a matter for the director to decide. There are no stage directions or lines which require him to do so. It can be a good call. When Keanu Reeves played Hamlet (yes, I was there), you only noticed him when he was running around like a maniac; at all other times everything and everybody else on stage became much more interesting than Hamlet. In that particular case, running around did make him seem more insane.
No, Hamlet is an only child.

Horatio is one of Hamlet's most trusted friends (possibly his only REAL one). Considering how little Hamlet trusts all the other characters in the play, it can be deduced that Horatio is the only character that Hamlet trusts.
No, Shahrukh Khan is not black belt. He not not even learnt Karate. He only knows Acting in Bollywood.
Only to Yoric, Horatio and Old Hamlet; The rest of the cast gets a lot of flack from Hamlet.[and heccuba~]
Claudius is only hurt by Hamlet, but was killed by his own position.
The only characters in the play Hamlet who are related to Hamlet are the ghost of his father King Hamlet, his mother Gertrude and his uncle Claudius. None of the rest are related to him.
After Hamlet has discovered that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are false friends who are acting on behalf of King Claudius, Hamlet tells the two that he knows that the King thinks he is mad, and says, "I am but mad north-north-west: when the wind is southerly I know a hawk from a handsaw" (2.2.378-9). Literally, Hamlet is saying he is mad only when the wind blows in one particular point of the compass, north-north-west. In other words, he is mad only at certain times, or in certain situations. If sanity can be metaphorically identified with a compass that points true north, then Hamlet is playing with the trope here, saying that his supposed madness is only a little bit crazy; he is not too far off the mark. Polonius himself observes that Hamlet's apparent mad statements have some "method"; he isn't allowing himself to stray very far from his true intentions, even when he is sorely pressed to do so. Probably his craziest moments are immediately after the Ghost's revelation in Act I when Horatio and Marcellus speak with him.
She hasn't said anything about that. So the only ones who knows are Emily Osment and the one she have been working with.
The longest play is Hamlet, which is the only Shakespeare play with more than thirty thousand words
The only protagonist in Hamlet is Hamlet, who emerges victorious only in the sense that he does end up getting his revenge on Claudius. Everyone else dies in the process, however.
