Synopsis

David Tennant (Doctor Who, Broadchurch) and Cush Jumbo (The Good Wife, Criminal Record) lead a stellar cast in an 'enthralling' (????? Daily Telegraph) new production of Shakespeare's Macbeth, filmed live at the Donmar Warehouse in London, especially for the big screen.Unsettling intimacy and brutal action combine at breakneck speed as Max Webster (Life of Pi, Henry V) directs this tragic tale of love, murder, and nature's power of renewal. With staging 'full of wolfish imagination and alarming surprise' (????? The Guardian), the immersive 5.1 cinema surround sound places the audience inside the minds of the Macbeths, asking are we ever really responsible for our actions?

Saw it three times. My favourite interpretation of Macbeth so far. DT and CJ have great chemistry. The music and sound were my favourite part.
