Sounds like a Hitchcockian Psycho-thriller. Well the role of Gertrude would have left Hitchcock searching for clues too. To this day it is unclear what was Gertrude's role in demise of King Hamlet. Many contrasting theories have been produced but none too strong to stand out. I personally believe that her role was to mark a turning point in history of women.
Previously women were considered dependent on their husbands. But, Gertrude changed that trend. She showed that a women has existence after her husband too. The society at that time didnt accept Gertrude's behavior. But bold behaviors are always criticized in the beginning and more so if they are done by a woman. So in certain way Gertrude mark the birth of women power.
