    I don’t know, I’m going to jump from one to the next. Thank you, teacher, for letting us read Shakespeare and write papers. Otherwise, I really don’t think this master is so high. When I break down the film, I think he was born for the film. The director connects the fate of the characters with the whole society at that time. The weird music, the eyes of the characters, and nature are intertwined, so that you know what fate...

    Compared with the French Shark version, it is slightly inferior. Although Shakespeare's play has certain elements like modern film noir, Orson overemphasizes the black atmosphere and despises the depiction of the psychology of the...

    1.14 Relive the classics for brushing SNM. This version is suspected to be in a hurry, with a strong stage style, simple sets and echoes in the studio. And the self-directed and self-acted Orson can't wait for a minute to use his own elevation angle to close up the entire right part of the picture, and the heroine neighs like a wild horse 2333. The three witches were rejected by the symbolic...

    It's a question of funding, it must be a question of money, the whole film is so rough, so many lines have been deleted, and a lot of plots have been simplified. I don't like this lady macbeth at all, it's too gentle and not cruel. Wells' personal acting is amazing. The scenes are pretty ordinary. I don't like the characters of the three witches...

    Macbeth Wells? The witch influenced Gollum? Did the Queen influence Melisandre? Ivan the Terrible benefited slightly from Wells' early days, but Macbeth borrowed heavily from Ivan the...

    In a sense, apart from the visual shock, this movie viewing process is a kind of torture to me~ If what I want to say and the emotions I want to express have been said in the first ten minutes, why spend an hour and a half constantly The roar of the repeated catharsis is still standing still~ However, Orson Welles will probably be quite suitable for making small cult films, after all, it is really a talent to shoot Shakespeare's drama with such rough originality and ghost film effect. ....

    Is it an expressionist work? Loyal to the original, the sets and props and costumes are very "original", and the movement and editing of the camera are the strengths of Osun Wells. But I still like Kurosawa's "Spider's...

    A/107 Minute Edition. The "drama" was rewritten with only the super-long shots and neat editing that alternated like a movement, and the time that sometimes shrinks and expands is polished; the "stage" is recreated with only the interlocking of multiple closed spaces and the long close-up, and the achievement is achieved. The maximum externalization of the inner space of the characters; seemingly attached to Shakespeare's original works, but the characters are so far away from the literary...

    Theatrical style, the imagery setting, the old English recitation, the suspicion of Kurosawa Akira's "Spider's Nest City" is a serious reference to this...

    Life is but a walking shadow

    Macbeth Act 5, scene 5, 19–28
    Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
    creeps in this petty pace from day to day
    To the last syllable of recorded time;
    And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
    the way to dusty death.
    Out, out brief candle!
    Life is but a walking shadow,
    a poor player that struts and...

    Shakespeare's film debut

    Orson Welles begins his Shakespeare trilogy with Macbeth. "Macbeth" makes Welles rediscover that he still enjoys his freedom and his own genius in full. As Jean Cocteau said of the film - "Orson Welles' Macbeth has a raw, unruly force. His actors are in some fantastic subway tunnel. Wandering...

Macbeth quotes

  • Lady Macbeth: [during Macbeth's strange behavior at the banquet] This is the very painting of your fear. This is the air-drawn dagger which you said led you to Duncan.

  • Macbeth: I have liv'd long enough: my way of life is fall'n into the sear, the yellow leaf; And that which should accompany old age, As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have; but, in their stead, Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honor, breath, Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not.
