The origin of the Macbeth legend, at least as far as I know, is that when a theatre troupe thought the planned play was a disaster or something was terribly wrong (to prevent the planned show) then Macbeth was the "default" show that was put on, every theatre troupe knew the play so it was the filler in case of disaster. As a result to mention Macbeth was to imply that the scheduled show would be a catastrophe, thus the legend that Macbeth signified disaster on the stage.

@henchman3725 2 жыл бұрын

Spot on. I was going to post the same. The reason that Macbeth was the go to play to play is that it is comparatively short, there is lots of blood, the plot is simple, and it was popular.

@avidadolares 2 жыл бұрын

I dont doubt you, but the reasoning is flawed. That only makes sense if they were doing another play and mentioned MacBeth, then it would be a jinx or bad luck. Mentioning MacBeth when doing MacBeth doesnt make sense with that origin story.

@henchman3725 2 жыл бұрын

@@avidadolares That is absolutely right. If the performers were in a run of a play (any play) and they heard Macbeth being mentioned by management the inference was it was being discussed as a replacement of the current play. From there the mention of Macbeth in the theatre became associated with bad luck. Of course, I could be wrong and it is cursed. 🤷‍♂️

@henchman3725 2 жыл бұрын

And to clarify, it’s meant to be bad luck to say Macbeth in the theatre, not just when you are in the play Macbeth. For the reasons mentioned above.

@@spikejoestar3374 Shakespeare only had one main character of colour, and Denzel has already played him. But, Shakespeare's plays are so well-known - and done so often - all over the world - that it is not at all unusual to mix it up abit. Are you saying that for example in a stage production in Japan, only a white man could play the part of Macbeth - or any others of the Scottish royal line, for that matter? Anyway, if you want a white Macbeth, there are dozen versions that already exist that you can enjoy. I for one am looking forward to Denzel's version. He is eerily capable of playing disturbed charaters, so I think it will be excellent.

But, since it's first and foremost fantasy, there is no real need to adhere to any "historical colorcoding". I have to admit, though, that I had a harder time accepting when it was announced Idris Alba was going to play Roland in the Dark Tower, but that's because I've read the books so many times - wherein Roland is described to resemble Clint Eastwood - that he was very established in my head that way. But, it's not something that I kept holding on to, and in the end, Idris did a decent enough job of it. (Not that it could save the film; that was pretty much doomed from the get-go, trying to make a normal-lenght movie out of 7 books, each one longer than the last... Why, why, why, Hollywood..?)

Ever since I watched that video essay about talk show hosts, I can never not notice how stephen always wants to be the last to sit and how long he'll stand to make sure it happens

You can tell Denzel loves Broadway and acting sooo much!

I only remember watching/reading Macbeth in school when I was like 12/13, and from this interview alone I now really want to watch this rendition

To be honest. I was not much of a fan of Denzel in the later years. But this interview turned me around. What a humble, and talented human being. The movie industry had a diamond quality Shakespearean actor. Too much talent to keep contained. Amazing. Blessings.

This man radiate a sense of power and control through the screen. If Denzel comes in the room, you stand.

97 is quite an innings. The more you love someone the deeper the pain is when they're gone.

You have brought tears of joy and sorrow to my eyes and Soul at the same time. Like a ball of salt in a Lay's potato chip bag, my tears of salt and sorrows.
