Storia
In this modern retelling of 'Macbeth', set in Melbourne's ganglands, Macbeth is a loyal member of Duncan's criminal organization. After encountering witches who prophesy that he will eventually lead the gang, Macbeth becomes consumed by ambition and plots with his wife to kill Duncan. Once in power, Macbeth resorts to violence to maintain it, ultimately leading to his downfall as enemies unite against him.
Riassunto
Macbeth (2006) is a contemporary adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy directed by Geoffrey Wright. The film transplants the original's medieval Scottish setting to Melbourne's ganglands, replacing kings and nobles with crime bosses and mobsters. The core story remains faithful to its source material, exploring themes of power, ambition, guilt, and tragic downfall through the lens of Australian criminal underworld.
