The Tragedy of Macbeth
Overview
Joel Coen shot Shakespeare's bloodiest tragedy in stark black and white — all shadows and stone. Denzel Washington's Macbeth is a man rotting from the inside; Frances McDormand's Lady Macbeth chills to the bone. Kathryn Hunter's witches are nightmare fuel in the best way. It's stagey by design, every frame like a woodcut. Mesmerizing if you surrender to it.
