Macbeth vs Macbeth

Macbeth was a performer in a William Shakespeare play. In my LA4 class we watch two different versions of the play. The first film started with Ian Mckellen, and the more modern film started with Sam worthington. these two films have many similarities and differences.
Both of the films have in common such as the dialogue. pretty much the more modern version has the same plot such as making Macbeth as king or leader. another thing is that they have all the same chacaters such as Macbeth of course, lady Macbeth, Mcduff, lady Macduff, the werid Witches, and etc.
The difference are the Witches. In the first film they were ugly and hidious but in the second version they were young, and pretty. Another thing is that Macbeth was younger, and Lady Macbeth was way more beautiful than the first version. Another thing is that the way they killed is so different. The first film they used swords to kill but the newer version they used guns. their acting was totally different. The main thing is that instead taking place in a forest or in a dark area, the newer version took place in a house, city and it was sunny.
