A Bloody Movie..

On 4th March 2008, we were asked to watch Macbeth as our outside-class activity. For me, it was a very violent drama that I had ever watched from Shakespearean works. Throughout the movie the characters shows horrible descriptions of the murder, from the opening scene where the captain describes Macbeth and Banquo wading in blood on the battlefield, to the bloodstained hands of Macbeth and his wife. There are also series of murders towards Duncan, Duncan’s chamberlains, Banquo, Lady Macduff, and Macduff’s son . By the end of the action, blood seems to be everywhere. Once Macbeth and Lady Macbeth get on their cruel journey, they never live in peaceful as their life seems to be haunted by the guilt of their wrongdoing. Here, Blood is symbolize as their fault. As a consequence, they would never enjoy their live to the fullest though they had obtained the highest position in the kingdom. In brief, this is the movie that had cause me dizziness, nauseous and just like to throw out in the end as I cannot bear to see the blood even just for several minutes..I still can imagine it even during my meal. Oh what an irksome movie is this..
