Theatrical performances within films[edit]

Another way in which film-makers use Shakespearean texts is to feature characters who are actors performing those texts, within a wider non-Shakespearean story. In Opera, the 1987 Italian giallo horror film written and directed by Dario Argento and starring Cristina Marsillach, Urbano Barberini, and Ian Charleson; young opera singer Betty (Marsillach) is reluctantly thrust into the lead role in Verdi's Macbeth. During her first performance, a murder takes place in one of the opera boxes. Mysterious murders continue throughout the film as Betty is stalked and those around her meet their unfortunate end. During the final performance of the opera, the killer is revealed, and Betty must confront her past in a terrifying climax.

Movie Versions Of Macbeth 3

Sep 04, 2016  Are you talking about film versions? To be honest, I can’t actually recommend any of them. The best one (or at least, the one that I’d recommend to a modern audience who wants to see the play) is the one that Patrick Stewart did a few years back. Macbeth (Michael Fassbender), Duke of Scotland, receives a prophecy from a trio of witches that one day he will become King of Scotland. Consumed by ambition and spurred to action by his wife Lady Macbeth (Marion Cotillard), Macbeth murders his king and takes the throne for himself. The Guinness Book of Records lists 410 feature-length film and TV versions of William Shakespeare's plays, making Shakespeare the most filmed author ever in any language. As of July 2018, the Internet Movie Database lists Shakespeare as having writing credit on 1,371 films, including those under production but not yet released. In the 1978 version of Macbeth I liked that it was easy to follow along with because there wasn't much going on in the play other than talking. That same darkness also got very boring to watch and I don't think the movie had the same effect as the 2010 version.
