Fortunately, Shakespeare is a little different in his approach of Temptation and the Fall of Man in comparison to the Bible. He…

The first apparition gains Macbeth’s trust through the first vision. The armed head declares Macbeth to “Beware Macduff;/Beware the thane of fife” (4.1.78-79).

manipulating the camera angle for a shot.
