Very bloody, a bit pretentious, (there's one scene that repeats and has an orchestrated rewind button, and the witches rap their songs), but Stewart was fantastic and the actress playing Lady MacBeth was even better.Eric Fuchs (BlueHighwind)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10520427554161808399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553633213256417629.post-38217234981975757282014-01-20T06:51:37.954-05:002014-01-20T06:51:37.954-05:00I watched Ken Branagh's version of Macbeth rec...I watched Ken Branagh's version of <i>Macbeth</i> recently, which was done with National Theatre last year. Staged in a deconsecrated church! Intense direction and acting! The mud, the blood! I think it was the production which has best communicated the despair and tragic spiral of <i>Macbeth</i> to me (and how straightforward and bloody the play is >_>). Also that Scotland is a bally cold and gloomy place. <br /><br />If he's still got it on stage, I wonder what on earth has gotten into him when it comes to films...Yuanhttp://yuanchosaan.deviantart.com/noreply@blogger.com
