Bars on bars.

My mind is full of scorpions.

And Garfield is not winning no damn Oscar. He’s still pretty young. He’ll get one eventually as he’s a really great actor. He killed that Tammy Faye movie too, but it’s Will’s time.

Like if art Barr narrated. Wtf is this

This was flames though. Visually it reminded me of Seventh Seal and of course Denzel and Frances kill their performances, but I thought Kathryn Hunter was the one who stood out to me the most. The presence of the witches were unsettling as fukk. Loved the reflection shot in the water. If it wasn’t for Skarsgard’s portrayal in Dune, it would be the most menacing role I’ve watched within the past year.

Macbeth’s fight scene with Siward had me grinning from ear to ear. Know damn well Denzel would’ve went for the throat chop before the finishing blow if this was directed by Spike.

Yeah, that fight was really dope and agree the visuals for this are

Not gonna lie the Shakespearean dialogue isn't the easiest to follow, especially if you aren't familiar with the story but I looked it up after watching the film and caught most of it. A few details went past me and I had to look up exactly what a thane was

12 pages? Gotdamn….. I don’t wanna hear no more bytching about Comic Book movies

this was many folks chance to come in here to discuss and talk about “CINEMA”


This was a really good show and I came from an era where they taught Shakespeare in English class (cuz I have a feeling they don’t do that no more) so this took me back then in a good way

 

[Jefe Blanco]

Loved this. Shooting in black and white really brought out a horrific, foreboding atmosphere. Denzel reached into his bag with this one as did the actress that played the witches.

 

[Nero Christ]

just watched and twas very good with one flaw. Beautifully shot...love films that rely on framing & positioning of the actors rather than having a million cuts in a scene...favorite shot was Macduff going to discover Duncan...the framing of that scene was just felt a lot like Kurosawa.

We don't even need to bring up the acting as everyone handled their business with , Frances, and the witch being standouts.

and yes, being in old English does make things a bit hard but the story is well known and not hard to follow. Film brought me back to high school where we read the book and everything started falling into place for me

No longer stickied?


Damn..... the facts speak for theyselves..... Cinema brehs..... yall failed

 

[PoorAndDangerous]

This was pretty damn good. I only understood like 60% of the dialogue but I got what was going on. Shakespeare really had bars yo. I kinda want to read more of his stuff and take time to understand it. Denzel and Kathryn Hunter were incredible. It’s hard not to act wooden I think with Shakespeare dialogue. A true testament to their abilities. Cinematography was really interesting. The black and white worked really well. I Wonder why Cohen decided to go with the 4:3 scale
