Swede Act 1 Scene 1 Film Review

Decent Essays
I chose to draw this scene because of the grate in the floor. The grate is an important part of he book because it is when Swede and Rube hear the adults talking through the grate so they eavesdrop on them. I was sure to include the details of the grate because they said it was a one foot square grate, so I made sure to put that in. I think this setting should be included in the movie because it was important to where they went to find Davy. I would add more things to the bedroom, but this was the only description there was of it. The producer should pick my set design because it is an important part of the book and it should be in the movie. Also the grate is 1' by 1', as said in the book, so I drew it exactly like it was described. There

In the play Macbeth, written by Shakespeare, and the 2015 movie of Macbeth, directed by Justin Kurzel,there are major differences seen.

Macbeth the film and Macbeth the play, show how a movie can differ from the actual message and mood the original author is in reality giving.…
