I finally got around to watching the 2015 film of Macbeth with Michael Fassbender yesterday, and I have to say, I really wasn’t too keen. It’s not that any of the actors put in poor performances and the scenery was stunning, it was just so… bleak? One note? It made me question if Macbeth itself is simply one of the Shakespeare plays I don’t enjoy very much, though to be fair I haven’t read the original text in years and years. I think I need to watch a few other versions. So when I finished it, I put Gregory Doran’s Hamlet on straight after and it felt like meeting up with an old friend. I needed to rebalance the Shakespeare scales, so to speak.(Photos via the RSC) -- source link
