[dzilen3]

One witch looked about 14...just the way Roman likes 'em.

Do you guyz notice that, at the end they were walking on sand but they dont have any foot prints..

They really are witches :)

Funny how some interpreters make the witches hot and some make them ugly.

It looks like the blind witch and the mute one are going off together, while the other one is separating from them.

I consider this transcription scenic Polansky as one of the best ever produced.

costumes and interpretation, enviable scenic environments and times.

I think, having read and studied the tragedy of Shakespeare's thought that this is even better than interpreted by Welles.

cool idea for the witches. i would say that he could have gotten better actors for them but that does not discount a great vision

Guys, I have to write a critique on this movie and I wasnt able to watch the full thing

So... I was wondering what your guys thoughts were on the movie

and which one did you prefer, The original book or the movie? and Why?

All. Fair is foul, and foul is fair, Hover through the fog and filthy air. (They spit)

First witch. When shall we three met again? In thunder, lightning, or in rain?

Second witch. When the hurlyburly's done, When the battle's lost and won.

First witch. That will be ere the set of sun.

Second witch. Where the place?

First witch. Upon the heath.

Second witch. There to meet with Macbeth.

Its funny how only the opening scene is only 3 people, and all the credits roll. just an observation >.<

[darkallegiance666]

Still the best version of MacBeth in film, imo.

[hczxp91]

@darkallegiance666 Not on your life! The 1979 version by the Royal Shakespeare Company starring Sir Ian MacKellan and Dane Judi Dench is better.

[aipokloco]

@hczxp91 That would be Trevor Nunn's

[hczxp91]

@aipokloco Yes, correct. Thank you.

[TF1411]

macbeth is pretty shit.

[arcadia44445]

please more D: i wanna watch this whole film..

[lidiabonini]

@arcadia44445 SO DO I. I wish they would stop preventing people to watch movies which are out of circulation for so many years. They should think of how many students might be interested in them.
