“Joel Coen solves the problem that curses most adaptations” – Isaac Butler, Slate
“[Coen] has made a ‘Macbeth’ that is sure to seduce audiences — one that, for all its darkness of import, is light-spirited, fleet, and intoxicating” – Owen Gleiberman, Variety
Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand star in Joel Coen’s bold and fierce new adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic.
When the Scottish Lord Macbeth encounters a trio of witches, he becomes convinced by them that he will become the next King of Scotland. Their strange prophecy sparks his ambition, leading him into a tangled web of murder, madness, and wrathful cunning, as his ambitious wife will do anything to support him in his plans of seizing power. The Tragedy of Macbeth is a remarkable film, photographed in visually stunning black and white, and director Joel Coen has made a new Macbeth adaptation for the ages.
Directed by Joel Coen, U.S.A., 2021, DCP, 105 minutes.
