In the Shakespearean play "Macbeth".The 1900's movie and the 20th century movie there were many differences and similarities.
In the first movie the acting was really good,you could actually follow what was going on in the scenes,but in the second movie they were too into the "looks" and not the beauty of the play.The first one was going by the book;word by word,scene by scene.But the second one added and deducted many parts that once attracted many readers.The beauty of the movie industries took away the beauty of Shakespeare great poetic work.

There were many similarities the scenes were alike they both contributed to what was expected to happened throughout the time being.The characters were the same.The scenery was alike,they both happened in a sort of castle looking place.the witches contributed a lot with both movies without them i think this movie would of never been successful.For me i didn't like Shakespeare work is good but not my type of reading.But is good for those who like Shakespeare's work.

  1. I disagree, I enjoyed the second movie better because it has more life into it, its not plain and dull like the first movie.

  2. I agree with what you say about the first one going word by word but the second one also followed the script word by word. The only reason it felt like parts were deducted was cause ms. Kang fastforwarded alot.
