SYNOPSIS: Roman Polanski presents his nightmarish version of Shakespeare's classic tragedy about the lust for power--and its bloody consequences.

Macbeth is the Scottish war hero whose insane ambition unleashes a cycle of violence.  Prompted by the supernatural prophecy of three witches, Macbeth is goaded by his Lady into slaying King Duncan and assuming his throne.  Macbeth plunges further into murder and moral decay to keep the unsteady crown on his head.  While his wife crumbles away in guilt and madness, the haunted Macbeth fights to prevent another dark forecast which may doom him.

EDITORIAL REVIEW:  This addition to our library doesn't really fall into the coming of age category, but thanks to some loyal customers who thought Macbeth would make a great addition here, we took their advice and added it for everyone to enjoy!  We have to agree with our customers' opinions on this film, and for the most part many other people seem to have enjoyed this film (over 7 on IMDB's user ratings).  The picture quality is fantastic, don't let the trailer fool you into thinking it isn't!
