The differences you saw between the movie and the reading, scences 1,2,3.

What was easier and what was more challenging and why?

Which one do you think you prefer and why?

The differences I saw between the movie and the reading of Macbeth were the book describes more of what is happening, compared to the movie visually showing you everything with some of the important speech involved with it. In the book, although Macbeth was killing people he didn’t seem scared to die himself. When he killed someone in the movie he seemed more afraid and scared then how they portrayed him in the book. For myself I thought the reading was slightly easier because I could make up the scence in my head and picture how the characters are playing the roles. Although I did think that it was easy to have the scences acted out right infront of you in the movie. You got to see more of the characters and how their emotions came out. For example, how Macbeth killed the king and how in the movie he seemed very nervous. I think I prefer the movie because it is way more interesting and easier to understand their speeches. Also, in the movie they act out more of the book then actually saying it. Reading the book you have to focus more on the words. In the movie you get to listen aswell as focus on the scence and the visual part. You can look at the characters and their faces when they are doing things.(Macbeths face and how he felt when he killed the king.) The movie is all infront of you and you just watch and listen to the dialects. The book you have to understand the words and the way they speak.
