Laurence Olivier is the only actor to have won an Oscar for a Shakespearean performance: Best Actor for Hamlet (1948).
That would be Hamlet's "To be or not to be..." soliloquy, where Hamlet contemplates suicide.
A actor or Shakespeare said it 1st in a play called Hamlet by a actor playing Hamlet.
One of the characters in the play Hamlet is called the "First Player", which means he is an actor. He is the "first" player because he is the leader of the actors who have come to visit Elsinore.
No hamlet is a play by William Shakespeare

Romeo is a character in the play Romeo and Juliet. He is not an actor and does not appear in an play within the context of the play. He is not like the First Player in Hamlet who is in fact an actor and does appear in a play called the Murder of Gonzago in the middle of the play Hamlet.

we think its David Tennant. He is in Doctor Who season 2 and 3, Harry Potter as Barty Crouch Jr and in a version of Hamlet as Hamlet
He played Hamlet, and is listed to have been arguably one of the best.
Laurence Olivier plays the part of Hamlet in the 1948 film which he also directed. The film won many awards including the Academy Award for Best Picture and Best Actor.
There were two: Laurence Olivier won Best Actor for Hamlet (1948), which he directed; Roberto Benigni won Best Actor for Life Is Beautiful (1998), which he directed.
Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play was created in 1949.
Hamlets friends are Rosencrantz, Guildenstern and Horation. However throughout the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern turn against Hamlet (not going to spoil how!) which leads to their downfall. Horation never goes against Hamlet, he is always there for him when Hamlet needs him. Hamlet is the best play by Shakespeare!!
i think it was his mother Queen Gertrude. That is my best bet but i am not positive. Sorry
There were two categories for best actor in 1951. There was the category of best play actor, which you probably meant, but there was also another category, that of best actor in a musical.Claude Rains (who won his award for his performance in Darkness At Noon)won in best play actor. Robert Alda (who was in Guys and Dolls) won the best musical actor award.
