Hamlet

Why do you think so many shots in the film depict Ophelia in the water? 2. A scene shows Ophelia as a child following Laertes who goes into a library. The gate/door is closed on her. What does this represent?

from movie 2018

Water is a motif or recurring idea in Hamlet, especially related to Ophilia. At one point Laertes refuses to cry because Ophelia has cried so much: Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears.

Ophelia also commits suicide by drowning.

I was happy to see there’s https://99papers.com/en/ an English-specific section. Sometimes, when I use services like this, I worry that the writing might sound off or unnatural. But having a clear “EN” version reassured me. It felt more tailored to international students like me. The language used in the final product was fluent and academic—no weird phrasing or grammar slips, which was a relief.
