The Macbeth Awards

Paul and Katy have managed to watch 21 adaptations of Macbeth during the 2020 Coronavirus Lockdown! But which of them had the best Donaldbain, I hear you cry. Well we're going to settle that along with best everything else! This is the absolutely cream of the crop, so have a listen and find out all the best things about us doing this. Also, we will name the very worst adaptation of Macbeth ever made that we saw!

Macbeth 2018

We did it! We reviewed every cinematic adaptation we could reasonably get our hands on without influence over time or the Thai authorities. We finish up with Macbeth 2018, a tragedy entirely in Green Screen! Are Paul and Katy ready for what is surely the future of Shakespeare? Or are they just a little over the whole thing by now? Find out! But it's the last one.

Paul and Katy fail to find a banned Thai film and so have to settle for perhaps the greatest cinematic adaptation ever made! A film of sound and fury, signifying certainly enough for us to talk for an hour or so about.
