The play and the film have many differences, but one difference between them is that in the play they never mention that Lady Macbeth had a son and in the movie they show her crying at his tomb stone. Another difference bettween them is that in the play everyone is fighting for the throne, but in the film they're fighting over drugs.
There are also many similarities between them, but one similarity both the film and the play have is that Lady Macbeth and her son get murder by some evil men. Another is that even in the film Shakespeares old english is spoken and most of the lines from the play were still used in the movie only in a more modern scene to make it more interesting.
I prefer the film because it was full of action, weapons and blood and it all caught my attention. It was more modern so it was easier to understand and it made it more interesting and not so boring like the film.

Hey Katherine i like how you explained the similarity and difference between both of the movies.You did a great job explaining it.
ReplyDeleteI agree on the opinion about the scenery. I believe the scenery played a huge role in helping understand the entire plot. Some scenery in the original film would have definitely spiced it up. Good opinion. =D
