MACBETH
Film Synopsis

 

Upon a blasted heath near Forres, three Witches, the "Weird Sisters", meet the King of Scotland's generals, Macbeth and Banqou, and hail Macbeth in a triple prophecy ending with the promise of kingship. After King Duncan has made him Thane of Cawdor (as the Witches promised), Macbeth knows that he and his unflinching wife are ambitious for the greater honor. She drives him forward, and that night he murders the sleeping king. 

After Macbeth is crowned king he remembers the Witches prophecies and has Banqou killed. Haunted that night by Banqou's ghost he visits the Witches the next day and learns to beware of Macduff, the Thane of Fife. In insane paranoia, he has Macduff's family murdered. Meanwhile Lady Macbeth, burdened by guilt, begins to sleepwalk and soon after kills herself. At this point, word of Macbeth's actions have reached Macduff, who vows revenge and marches toward the royal castle with the army of Malcolm, the youngest son of the late King Duncan. 

Macduff and Macbeth meet in battle, where the Witches prophesy is again proved true and Macbeth is slain. Macduff presents his head to Malcolm and Malcolm is hailed the new King of Scotland.
