327 Words2 Pages
The 2010 Rubert Goured Version of Macbeth is a very captivating and interesting way of betraying the banquet scene in the movie. One reason why Rubert Gouredred captivated the audience, was when Macbeth starts getting confused if there is a seat at the table, for him or not. In the book version of Macbeth, Macbeth can see that the ghost of Banquo is sitting in the chair, but everyone sees that the seat is not occupied. Rubert Goured betrays this part by having one of the cooks (a witch) sitting there, the audience knows that the cooks are the three witches, but Macbeth does not. Macbeth starts to realize somethings up but is not sure of it. By Ruburt Goured doing this it makes the audience wanting to watch more and keeps them more captivate

While Shakespeare’s Macbeth and Beowulf’s Grendel differ in motivation, characteristics, and method, they both share a common theme of murder. Macbeth is started off being visited by two witches, who predict that Macbeth will eventually take over the Thane of Cawdor, and become King, as he is already known as the Thane of Glamis. The witches refer to Macbeth as these titles (1.3.47-50), and this only sparks Macbeth’s curiosity and wild journey, and thus, begins the process of becoming King. Macbeth feels a sense of pressure from his wife, Lady Macbeth, and he sees signs prophesying his eventual murder of the King and his potential new role.

Making a movie from direct content that is more than a hundred years old is easy because all the scenes and script is there for your use. Some directors like to make some drastic or minor changes based on their own interpretation of the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare. While watching both Goold (2010) and Polanski (1971), I have noticed a lot of major differences between the two movies and the original play Macbeth written by William Shakespeare. Some of the differences I have noticed is that is in Goold (2010), Macbeth actually comes to kill Lady Macduff and her children. Another difference in Goold (2010) is that the witches are shown throughout the film.

In the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare, there are varying conflicts which are fueled by the relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. After Macbeth obtains a prophecy hinting at his future position as king, his ambition and rise to power was largely influenced by the manipulative nature of Lady Macbeth. This is supported by Lady Macbeth's decision to denounce Macbeth's indecision to kill King Duncan in favor of desired power and her exertion of continuous pressure targeted at breaking Macbeth's ethical ideals and moral compass. Macbeth struggles to conceive the possibility of murdering King Duncan, which is met by a torment of judgement and criticism by Lady Macbeth to coerce his actions for her own personal gain.

In response to this Macbeth has to worry about not just humans but about nature. Macbeth doesn’t not realize that there could be lightning that hit a tree and could cause a fire.
