The ideal level of contemporary Shakespeare film adaptation, slowing down each line makes Chang Nianbai, who has always created obstacles for film adaptation, instead provide space for the enrichment of the language of the camera. Photography is also quite worthy of the room to play. The PTSD setting has been completed by magic, and I, who did not agree with this interpretation before reading it, was completely convinced by the interpretation of PTSD. Young sacrificial warriors, Macbeth's dead children, Banquo's young children, Macbeth burnt innocent children with his own hands... It is ingenious to use these children to connect Macbeth's deeper madness and the source of his suffering. It is precisely because of this interpretation that I was unexpectedly uncomfortable and nauseated - because of his own pain, he eventually became the one who inflicted more pain and struggle on himself. This adaptation is quite in line with the tragic aesthetic that makes the audience feel sympathetic to the protagonist. [Whether there are limitations or not] I was in tears at the beginning of walking shadow. Falcon's performance was great.

    Classical Chinese, super difficult English. Shakespeare's language, extremely slow narrative, desolate and atmospheric photography, and finally the blood red sky gradually portray Macbeth's tragic fate. Fa Sha and Ma Liang both performed very well. Fa Sha starred in the sexiest version of Macbeth. The figure came out of the water... Ma Liang continued to control the field, and the English voice was not pressured. A very special movie that did not please the audience.
