Let me add my thanks! I saw this in class years and years ago, and I've been trying to track it down since I became a teacher. Thanks so much for uploading this!

[WeHaveExplosive]

you're welcome! I saw it in school too about - er, 16 years ago I think, took me a decade to track down but here it is. There's an animated Macbeth in the same series that's pretty good too.

You're welcome. It's quite condensed from the original story but like you said, more accurate than either of the live-action films.

Yo, WeHaveExplosive. Thanks a ton for this upload. I remember first watching this as a kid one weekend afternoon on HBO. I was one of the few people in my high school who loved to read the entire epic poem, being totally into ancient myths & legends like King Arthur, Cuchulain, Robin Hood, Hercules & Roland. Thanks again!

Рисовка мультфильма очень похожа на русскую, да и мультик тоже на треть русский.

Beowulf is Geat. Not a Dane.
