Adapted from Shakespeare's Macbeth, this "Spider's Nest" is a very successful re-creation based on the original, transplanting the story of medieval Europe into the equally chaotic Japanese Warring States period, stripped of its form but firmly grasping The most profound tragic connotation in Shakespeare's plays. Akira Kurosawa's genius lies in the fact that he did not use the Japanese to play the British in the classic Shakespeare works. It is the transplanted Shakespeare's ideas that make up a very national Japanese story. As the international authoritative film critic Tang Ruiqi said, "Akira Kurosawa's great talent is that as a film creator, he can bring us the feelings of the dramatist Shakespeare powerfully." Almost all the background music of the film is played by drums, plates and flutes unique to Japan, and the ancient style still exists. The rap at the beginning and end of the film evokes a sense of nostalgia and makes people think. The sobbing chanting of the ghost in the spider forest gives people a sense of mystery, which contrasts with the atmosphere of the plot. The whole article is based on gray, and the vast fog is a bright background for the film, making everything appear hazy, but the desire is clearly visible. When a person falls into the nest of ambition, failure and destruction will be the final destination. From this point of view, both "Spider's Nest" and "Macbeth" have the meaning of "historical records".
