recently watched two versions of the Macbeth-altered movie. One is a modern background, Yimei, as a cook, murders her boss. The other is that the French shark is insane in the dark place of Scotland.
The distant call that he heard was nothing but an insight that he had been brewing for a long time. The witch is not foreknowledge, but only draws the desire in her heart, and lays the groundwork step by step, delicate and cautious, so there is no room for doubt and abandonment. Macbeth entered the urn and struggled, and his wife's instigation contributed greatly, but she was also the first to be attacked. People who seem to be firm may be the easiest to be defeated, (the wife's suicide precedes Macbeth's decisive battle, and her fear has been kept silent, so it is the most painful). The scary thing is to inspire the seemingly cowardly. Macbeth didn't know that the old king could draw so much blood. From Banquo to the Macduff family, at that time, except for the witch's prophecy, no one asked him to kill him. Power is a matter with no end. Once you get it, you will want more. The lord, the duke is far from enough, and the throne is not the end, but the inheritance from generation to generation.
Since then, he has been unable to sleep at night. For he took the life of a benevolent man in the sleep of others. There is no predestination, everything is cause and effect. And the first knife was stabbed into his heart by himself, and he was the one who ended his own humanity. Shakespeare may want to say more, does Macbeth really respect life? He is a brave and good general, who is wrapped in horse leather and hungry. What he fears is the destruction of the moral principles rooted in his heart - unfaithful to your ruler, unjust to your friends. After he gained power, he did not use it to taste a little sweetness. His obsession with power was like the last chip of a gambler who had already lost. At the end of the day, let's fight again. Although it means, to lose more.
Because he is no longer human. The moment he killed the king, he also went to hell, and from then on, he was just a ghost without any firm creed. Wandering, wandering, in echoes of oneself, until tortured to death by oneself.
What have done can't be undone.
Tragedy is just so pointless.
In French Shark's version, the director made the clouds in Scotland linger, and people in the mountains are just a line of ants that are easily overlooked. The sky and the earth are vast, and fate reciprocates. Malcolm succeeds the throne, and there will be Banquo's descendants to usurp, and generations of Macbeth will only change their skins.
And the freshness of the present is just an echo of the past whose blood has not yet cooled down.
People are always repressed by their own desires. The inside cannot escape the projection from the outside.
It's just that the outside world is like a mirror, like mountains. This world, how you treat it, it will tease and tease you with the same face.
