    As could be expected when a Shakespearean play becomes a modern movie there were many differences in scenes.

    very good job of portraying the emotions the characters were experiencing during the play. The strongest scene in he book would have to be when Walter turned down the money he would get for not moving into the neighborhood . I felt this took a lot of guts on his part. I also thought that this was a turning point in the novel. By Walter not accepting the money it showed that he not only grew through out the play‚ but also that he put many things into perspective. His family became the most integrate

    review on Polanski’s film Macbeth was accurate and understandable. In Shakespeare’s play‚ there are several themes such as ambition‚ appearance vs. reality and abuse of power‚ however in Polanski’s movie it seemed like there was only one theme violence.

The play Macbeth does include many fights and murders‚ since the character Macbeth is a soldier who takes many

    had to end up dying in the end as well. During his struggles‚ he managed to become a powerful figure of his time‚ leaving behind a legacy that would continue to inspire people. I really enjoyed the visuals in this especially the beginning of the movie with the war scene. The fighting was very fast-paced and the environment was ever-changing with different characters displaying different talents. Commodus was a character I really liked as I felt he was really good with playing a villainous character
