SHIRLEY+2nd+DRAFT

//Macbeth// was a play that was written by William Shakespeare. The play was written in the 17th century. At that time their play had to be done all at once, because at that time there was very less technology involved so they could’t cut from one scene to another scene or they couldn’t edit the film. In the older version of the movie, you can see clearly that they use very less technology back then. Movies are able to be made during day and night, most scenes appear to be at the right time. The weathers can be shown very clearly in a movie even though it a play it might be described in words instead of showing it. At the first part as it started out only //Macbeth// is the only one who knew about the first prophecy.

In the Japanese version in the term of violence, //Macbeth// without acting out he just come on the stage after killing Duncan and he tell his wife this is the scene that Miki killing the king. The another scene is also when //Macbeth// or Miki feel curious about what lies ahead after the past predictions having come true and in the modern version only //Macbeth// hears about his and Banquo's destiny. In all of the version of //Macbeth//, there is something that represents the dreadful future lying ahead such as supernatural things.

All of the //Macbeth// movies have supernatural things in them like, In Polanski's version there are three witch sisters, in the modern version there are three school girls wearing a kind of Gothic clothes and looking very sexy and in the Japanese version there is an a old white women sewing something. The Witches persuaded Macbeth to kill people. The first Witch says “ //All hail, Macbeth! hail to thee, thane of Glamis” and// the second witch says //“All hail, Macbeth, hail to thee, thane of Cawdor!”// and the third Witch says //“All hail, Macbeth, thou shalt be king hereafter!.”//

I think that the Polanski's version described best to fit the play, by their character act, and how they look like in the play. The Japanese version is look more Asian you can see by the character act and their clothing. The last one is the modern version, The scene is take place in the club and people are dressing very modern, even the witches they dress in modern Gothic and look very sexy. In the modern version the technology is most advance if you compare to the other two version. In this version some of the scene is not like the original as you can see the scene, dead of //Macbeth//, he got shot in this version and he lies next to the corpse of his wife but in the original he got chop his head and his head got placing on the bridge
