Macbeth [DVD9] (1971)

Storyline: Roman Polanski's version of Shakespeare's tragedy about a Scottish lord who murders the king and ascends the throne. His wife then begins hallucinating as a result of her guilt complex and the dead king's son conspires to attack MacBeth and expose him for the murderer he is.

Beschreibung: Roman Polanskis Verfilmung zeigt den William Shakespeare-Klassiker in einer mitreißenden, farbenprächtigen Version. Verrat, Mord, Machtgier und unheimliche Erscheinungen pflastern Macbeths Weg vom siegreichen Schlachtenführer zum Herrscher Englands. Sein grausiges Ende und der Selbstmord von Lady Macbeth bilden den schockierenden Schlußakkord eines unvergeßlichen Films.
