 The Tragedy of Macbeth
comment
The Tragedy of Macbeth is a 2021 drama film written and directed by Joel Coen, based upon William Shakespeare's Macbeth. The film was produced by A24 and Apple TV+.As is usually the case, the Scottish lord Macbeth (Denzel Washington) encounters three witches (Kathryn Hunter plays all three) who prophesy that he shall be Thane of Cawdor and, eventually, King of Scotland. After the first part of the prophesy is fulfilled, Macbeth and his ambitious wife (Frances McDormand) scheme together to seize power from Duncan, the current king (Brendan Gleeson), heedless of the consequences that will follow and the enemies they will make...Corey Hawkins plays Macduff and Bertie Carvel plays Banquo, Stephen Root has one scene as the drunk porter, Harry Melling plays Duncan's son Malcolm and Moses Ingram plays Lady Macduff. The film received a limited theatrical release, starting on December 25th, 2021 before streaming on Apple TV starting January 14th, 2022.

Ominous Hair Loss: Lady Macbeth, who is starting to look more haggard, reaches up and easily pulls out a whole hank of her hair. Her "out damned spot" mad scene comes soon after.

Adaptation Expansion
 The Tragedy of Macbeth / int_23473ae7
comment
Adaptation Expansion: Ross, a rather minor character in the play who often acts a messenger and comfort to other characters, has his characterization expanded here. He deliberately ingratiates himself with the Macbeths after they become monarchs (as opposed to the play, where his loyalty to them is never explained and may simply be a survival tactic), takes the part of the Third Murderer and assists in killing Banquo,note The 1971 film also makes Ross the Third Murderer keeps watch for the murderers who arrive to kill the Macduffs whilst distracting Lady Macduff with false comfort, and possibly murders Lady Macbeth to get on Malcolm's good side. The last scene of the film shows him fetching Fleance from a safe house and riding away with him, with the possible implication that he may be plotting to usurp Malcolm to put Fleance on the throne.

Circling Vultures: Ravens are seen circling overhead as the film opens. This is logical (a battle has just been fought), and sets an ominous mood, but it also may be an early appearance of the Weird Sisters, who seem to be able to turn into ravens.

Mythology Gag: The film is titled The Tragedy of Macbeth because that is what the play was titled when it was printed in the First Folio. Most other print editions, stage productions, and filmed adaptations are simply titled "Macbeth".

Curb-Stomp Battle: Without drawing his sword, Macbeth defeats Siward by simply dodging his blows, pushing him around, and eventually stealing the man's blade. He even gives up on the fight and begins to walk away, but when Siward rushes at Macbeth's back, he handily finishes the prince off.

Killed Offscreen
 The Tragedy of Macbeth / int_423f5a19
comment
Killed Offscreen: In the play, Lady Macbeth dies offstage. If productions do show her death, she's usually shown committing suicide. This film, however, strongly implies that she was killed by Ross. As people are running around chaotically in the castle, Ross, who knows that Lady Macbeth knows about his crimes, sees her at the top of the stairs. He's shown walking up towards her. She's shown later, dead at the bottom of the stairs.

Instant Oracle: Just Add Water!: Macbeth's second scene with the Weird Sisters see them flood his bedchamber from the rafters and throw ingredients in the water like it's a giant cauldron. After some bubbling, the reflection of a child appears in the water and tells Macbeth three prophesies. The Weird Sisters disappear and the water drains out of the room.

 The Tragedy of Macbeth / int_43b154c9
comment
Not Even Bothering with the Accent: As is often in Shakespeare, the actors keep their natural accents rather than affecting that of the setting, in this case Scotland. Making this instance more noticeable than usual is that the cast is a mix of American and UK actors, so the accents vary quite a bit.

comment
Credits Gag: Macbeth insults the servant who brings word of the approaching army by calling him "whey-face". In the credits that character is named "Wheyface." Joel and Ethan Coen frequently edit their films themselves under the pseudonym "Roderick Jaynes". As Joel directed this film alone, the editing credit goes to one "Reginald Jaynes".

Dragon with an Agenda: In this version, Ross quickly becomes Macbeth's right-hand man and plays an important part of Macbeth's reign as his personal assassin and enforcer. However, he eventually sells Macbeth out to Malcolm, and in the end is revealed to have been keeping Fleance under guard, revealing that he had been playing both sides for his own unknown ends.

Playing Both Sides: Ross is seen carrying out the worst of Macbeth's bidding without a hint of guilt and also happily provides information to Macduff and Malcolm. In the end, it seems he had a more of an interest in the two claimants weakening each other through war than an interest in any party in particular, since he has the future king Fleance in his possession.

Composite Character: Several smaller Lords and characters are folded into Ross, giving him a more substantial role in the play compared to other adaptations. Seyton is also combined with several other unnamed servants and the murderers of Lady Macduff and her son. Siward and Young Siward are folded into one character. (It's Young Siward, the son, that Macbeth kills in the play right before the final confrontation with Macduff).

Slouch of Villainy: In the earlier parts of the film, when he's a loyal soldier and hero, Macbeth affects the erect posture of a military man. Near the end, after he's king and neck-deep in murder, he's slouching lazily on his throne as he receives the "cream-faced loon" servant, and again when Siward comes charging in.
