Film Description
Heaths were never so blasted, days were never so foul and fair. This is a Macbeth with a motive for his acts; he wants to move somewhere drier! Polanski drags Shakespeare into the gritty 1970s, and brings all his considerable skill to bear on this fast moving, bloody and eminently accessible version. Francesca Annis found acclaim for her naked sleepwalking Lady M., and you come to understand how Macbeth could carry out such heinous acts. The musical score was from The Third Ear Band who were nominated for an Academy Award.
