Mufasa was the king of Pride Rock. He had a son named Simba and he had a wife whom was Simba’s mother. Mufasa also had a brother named Scar, who was always jealous of Mufasa and always wanted to be king, so he also murdered the King. Therefore King Hamlet and Mufasa both played the role of innocent kings whom were murdered by their jealous brothers. Hamlet and Simba are also both characters who play similar roles in the book/movie.
But in Walt Disneys The Lion King all the characters from the Hamlet are turned into animals. The young prince whose father is murdered by his fathers brother name is Simba. King Claudius would also be compared to Scar in the lion king because he murdered Mufasa who was Simba’s father and the king of the jungle. In the movie Simba also delays his actions much like Hamlet in the play when he finds out who murdered his fathers. In both the play and the movie the fathers of both princes approach their sons in the same way, each prince encountered a ghost who told them what really happen to their fathers.
There is Amleth/Hamlet’s dead father, the brother who killed his father and becomes king, the mother who married Amleth/Hamlet’s uncle. There is also the plan to kill his uncle, and the murder of the person behind the curtain in his mother’s bedroom. Also his uncle, now the king, also decides to send Amleth/Hamlet to England, so the King of England will kill him. The king sends two servants to accompany Amleth/Hamlet to England, but they both know the intentions of the trip, but Amleth/Hamlet end up eventually, with much plotting, having both the servants killed. And the last similarity, though not in exact description, is Amleth/Hamlet killing his uncle, the king.
Hamlet thinks it’s the king who is doing the spying and therefore ends up killing Polonius. This foil of Hamlet gives him a violent image and makes him look like he doesn’t know how to control his emotions. Polonius’s problem is the same, yet the results are less severe. Polonius makes himself sound like a fool by not thinking through things thoroughly Another foil in Hamlet is young Fortinbras, the nephew to the king of Norway. Like Hamlet, Fortinbras’ father was also killed, and his uncle took over the throne.
In the cabin, while Charlie is meant to bribe Terry with a job so that he would keep quiet about the deeds of the union, Terry expressed his disappointment in Charlie. “It was you… you was my brother Charlie; you shoulda looked out for me a little bit.” Terry’s tone in speaking shows his pain and sorrow that Charlie places his own benefits above his passion and prospect. Charlie knows Terry has potential in boxing, but he forces him to lose the title so that he could win Friendly’s trust and favor. This ruins Terry’s reputation on the boxing field, so he could only work for Friendly as a longshoreman and as a person who assist their illegal activities. He was neither a core member of the union nor a worker accepted by other longshoremen on the dock.

Reid Patterson November 20, 2014 ENGL 231 The Importance of Shakespeare Even I knew about Shakespeare as a child. I’m honestly not sure how I knew about him and that he wrote the amazing, but tragic story of Romeo and Juliet. I didn’t grow up in a household that loved him or his works, but somehow I still was able to be aware of how great he was at writing. I learned about him in junior high, and realized he could write with intense precision. My English teacher from High School once conveyed that Shakespeare played a hand in shaping our English Language.
All the kings’ sons gather to his deathbed to discover who will be his successor when he tells them he doesn’t know. The way for one of the 3 remaining (they kind of kill each other by pushing one another out windows, by sword, not gory, still kids movie) that the true king will have to find the crystal and whoever turns it into a ruby will be the actual King. You can tell the complications very well within the first few minutes. The early parts were well written and directed as basically straight away we knew what was going on. Many movies keep their audience on the edge clueless so this portrayal of Tristan’s father and mother was well directed.
