The newest Macbeth film is the latest in a long line of film and TV adaptations of one of Shakespeare's darkest and most haunting plays, but it offers a clarity of vision and purpose that will prove invaluable to both teachers and students.
I love teaching Shakespeare. Whether it's re-exploring Macbeth for the hundredth year in succession or delving in and out of Henry V, I just enjoy sharing the characters, the plot, the language and the worlds of these wonderful texts.
