Macbeth (2010x6)

: 12, 2010

Film version of director Rupert Goold's highly-acclaimed production of Macbeth, originally staged by Chichester Festival Theatre and later a sell-out hit in the West End and on Broadway. Shot on location in the mysterious underground world of Welbeck Abbey in Nottinghamshire, the film is set in an undefined and threatening central European world. Immediate and visceral, this is a contemporary presentation of Shakespeare's intense, claustrophobic and bloody drama.
