"Macbeth e Banquo, generali di Duncan, re di Scozia, al ritorno da una vittoriosa campagna contro i ribelli, incontrano tre streghe, le quali predicono al primo che diventerà signore di Cawdor e poi re; al secondo che, senza mai ascendere al trono, genererà dei sovrani. Avveratasi subito la prima parte della profezia, Macbeth si confida con la moglie, che lo esorta a liberarsi degli scrupoli e fare quanto sta in lui perché il resto ne segua. Mentre Duncan è ospite nel suo castello, Macbeth lo uccide, attribuendo l'assassinio a due servi, che egli giustizia con le proprie mani prima che possono discolparsi. Fuggiti i figli di Duncan, Malcom e Donalbain, Macbeth, benché dilaniato dal rimorso, prende la corona. Per impedire che s'avveri, per Banquo, la profezia delle streghe, assolda due sicari con l'ordine di uccidere l'amico e suo figlio Feance, che riesce a mettersi in salvo. Perseguitato dallo spettro di Banquo, apparsogli durante un festino, Macbeth consulta le streghe, che gli dicono: di guardarsi da Macduff, signore di Fife, che nessun nato di donna potrà nuocergli; che, infine, egli sarà vinto soltanto quando la foresta di Birnam si muoverà. Macbeth fa uccidere la moglie e i figli di Macduff, che si è unito a Malcom per raccogliere un esercito in Inghilterra. Persa la ragione, lady Macbeth si uccide. Mascherandosi dietro i rami strappati alla foresta di Birnam, l'esercito di Malcom e Macduff assale il castello di Macbeth. Morto il sovrano, ucciso da Macduff (che era stato estratto coi ferri dal ventre della madre morta), Malcom diviene il nuovo re."@it
""Macbeth et Banquo, deux chefs de l'armée de Duncan, roi d'Écosse, reviennent d'une campagne victorieuse. Sur la lande, ils rencontrent trois sorcières. Celles-ci prédisent à Macbeth un titre de Baron de Cawdor ainsi que celui de futur roi d'Écosse tandis qu'à Banquo, une descendance royale. Peu de temps après, deux messagers viennent alors informer Macbeth de l'honneur que lui fait le Roi en le nommant baron de Cawdor. Le désir de se faire couronner nait alors en Macbeth. Sa première réaction est de faire part de sa rencontre insolite à son épouse. Face au manque de volonté de Macbeth, Lady Macbeth l'encourage dans l'idée d'assassiner le roi, lui rappelant ses premières ambitions. Ils finissent par tuer Duncan dans leur propre château en faisant passer ses gardes comme meurtriers. Effrayés à l'idée d'être accusés du meurtre mais aussi par crainte de subir le même sort, les enfants de Duncan fuient en Angleterre, laissant le trône libre à Macbeth. Les peurs de Macbeth le conduisent alors à ordonner plus de meurtres - notamment celui de Banquo, et à revoir les trois sorcières qui lui prédisent de n'avoir crainte d'aucun homme né de femme. De plus, son royaume ne sera en danger que lorsque la forêt de Bhirnam se mettra à bouger. Une rébellion naît des atrocités du règne de Macbeth, et ce dernier se fait finalement assassiner au château de Dunsinane par Macduff, arraché du ventre de sa mère avant terme et dont la famille s'est fait exterminer sur l'ordre du tyran".--Site wikipédia, consulté le 2 mars 2015."

"Äußerlich wort- und werkgetreue Verfilmung von Shakespeares Tragödie, die aber das innere Drama durch zu starke Betonung der spektakulären Effekte - Blutrünstigkeiten und Scheußlichkeiten - verfehlt. Durch Fehlbesetzung der Hauptrollen auch darstellerisch nicht fesselnd. Erlesen schöne und schockierend abstoßende Bilder in satten Farben geben nur den Augen Nahrung, der Intellekt bleibt unstrapaziert."
