Blood..blood..in Macbeth

When we were assigned by Dr Malachi to watch Macbeth, I thought it is going to be a boring story. But I was wrong. I found out that Macbeth is a very interesting story but the only problem that I face while watching that movie is the language used. To me, the language used appeared difficult for me to understand. In the end, I was able to understand the whole story by reading the simplified version of Macbeth. So, Macbeth is basically the last of Shakespeare's four great tragedies
The film started with three witches conclude a meeting. They decide to meet the on his winning return from a war between Scotland and Norway. The Scottish king, Duncan, decides that he will confer the title of the traitorous Cawdor on the heroic Macbeth.

Macbeth, and another General called Banquo, happens to meet the three witches. The witches predict that he will one day become king. They also predict that Banquo will create a line of kings. King Duncan arranges to visit him at his castle. Macbeth cannot stop thinking about the witches' prediction that he will become king and decides that he will murder Duncan. Macbeth's wife agrees to his plan and she is the one who supported Macbeth.

He then murders Duncan assisted by his wife and Duncan’s body was discovered by Macduff.. Macbeth also killed the guards before the investigation took place. Duncan's sons, Malcolm and Donalbain, do not believe their father had been killed and they made a decision to run ayay. Due to that, the crown was passed to Macbeth.
He remembers the prophecy of the witches that Banquo will create a line of kings. So, he decided to murder Banquo and his sons Donalbain and Fleance. Fleance, is the only one to escape with his life. At a feast the bloodied ghost of Banquo appears to Macbeth but to no one else causing Macbeth to act and speak strangely. His wife sends the guests away.

Macbeth was afraid that his crime was revealed and to suspect that Macduff, a nobleman who refused to attend the feast suspects him. He then meets with the witches again and they confirm that he has good reason to fear Macduff but they calm his fears by telling him that no born of woman can kill him.

After meeting with the witches he found out that Macduff is urging Duncan's son, Malcolm, to reclaim the throne. Due to that, he commands his guards to kill Macduff's wife and son. As a result, Macduff organized an army to bring down Macbeth.

Lady Macbeth's conscience now begins to torture her and she imagines that she can see her hands covered with blood but in the end she commits suicide.

Macbeth then decided to meet Macduff in hand-to-hand combat confident that he will win the day because ''none born of woman'' can harm him. Macduff then reveals that he was not ''of woman born'' Macduff kills Macbeth and the witches prediction proves true. Malcolm becomes king.
