Shakespeare: Macbeth
 | Label: OPUS ARTE Catalog: OA1137D Format: DVD VIDEO Joseph Millson Samantha Spiro Stuart Bowman Billy Boyd Gawn Grainger Philip Cumbus Finty Williams Moyo Akandé JeFrom its mesmerizing first moments to the final fulfilment of the witches’ prophecy, Macbeth is one of Shakespeare’s darkest and most powerful tragedies – a gripping account of one man’s determination to secure his ambition and pronounced destiny, the crown of Scotland, by whatever means necessary. Filmed in High Definition and true SS, this production marked actor Eve Best’s sensational debut as a director and was described as ‘cracking – at times, terrifying’ (Daily Telegraph). Joseph Millson and Samantha Spiro lead the cast, offering ‘superb fresh-minted performances’ as the power-obsessed Macbeth and his increasingly guilt-ridden wife.  Price: $36.98 |
