Macbeth (1971)

Macbeth: Directed by Roman Polanski. With Jon Finch, Francesca Annis, Martin Shaw, Terence Bayler. A ruthlessly ambitious Scottish lord seizes the throne with the help of his scheming wife and a trio of witches.

“Vehement and inch-perfect approach of Roman Polanski towards Shakespeareu0026#39;s greatest play u0026quot;Macbethu0026quot;. Polanskiu0026#39;s absolute narrative technique and profound direction set the heinous deed of Macbeth and his tragic fate with elegance. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe brilliantly represents all Shakespearean symbols on the screen— especially the floating u0026quot;daggeru0026quot;, apparitions in the witchesu0026#39; den. Jon Finch powerfully portrays the downfall of Macbeth while Annis appears vivid struggling with her greed and conscience. Vibrantly, one of the mightiest adaptations from Shakespeareu0026#39;s :pu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e8/10__:D”
