    The Differences between the Play and the Movie Macbeth The movie Macbeth has many differences from the actual play; here are just a few of them. First of all it is set in a completely different time period most likely the late 1930’s to the early 1940’s‚ while the original storyline is during the late 1400’s or during the early 1500’s.

    Book adaptations are a huge trend in the modern era of cinema and the entertainment business in general. Almost every book‚ whether fictitious or not‚ has been made into a 2 hour long film that usually gets popular. Movies like It‚ The Hunger Games and Goodfellas are good examples.
