Mine too! I am considering making Macbeth (1971) the first of a big “Macbeth” push until the Dec 4th release date of the Fassbender/Cotillard Macbeth. I’ve got the Judi Dench/Ian MacKellan one and Throne of Blood on the docket as well, so my readers might get a little sick of Macbeth.

There can never be too much Macbeth. It’s seriously one of the most interesting Shakespeare material to adapt, which has resulted in some creative releases. We are also really looking forward to the new version. I hear that Cotillard is amazing as Lady Macbeth.
