A big scene, and one of my favourites. We're introduced to several major characters here, but Hamlet and Claudius most substantially. This scene sets up how villainous a portrayal of Claudius this will be, the tenor of Hamlet and Claudius's relationship, as well as the political tenor in Denmark.

The 1980 BBC Shakespeare adaptation I'm watching has an interesting transition, where the applause from the wedding ceremony starts as the characters are exiting in 1.1, before it cuts to the room in 1.2, resembling audience applause as actors exit the stage. This puts us in mind of the world as a stage, and specifically in the next scene, the pageantry of the wedding ceremony as a piece of theatre. Patrick Stewart's Claudius is a slick politician playing to the room in reassurance as he navigates the delicate political situation of the sudden transfer of power, which later scenes would suggest might not be completely smooth amongst the general populace. Likewise, Hamlet has a performance of his own, arriving at a wedding dressed for a funeral. Derek Jacobi's Hamlet applauds sarcastically, and equally delivers his barbs to the room. His behaviour seems as much about grief as an outright challenge to the falsities.
