The Tragedy Of Macbeth

Based on the 1955 gangster thriller Joe Macbeth…errrr..Based on Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood..no?..Roman Polanski's 1971 "bloody" Macbeth?..Orson Welles' 1948..Still no? Nevermind.

Do we really have to explain Macbeth? Scots, forests, witches and spots.

Joel Coen's solo directorial debut (he's one half of the Coen Brothers) and starring his lovely wife, the always watchable Frances McDormand as Lady Macbeth. Denzel Washington is Lord Macbeth, the ambitious Scottish King wannabe.

And yes, we know it is streaming, that's just something we'll have to get used to.
