In revolutions, the most fiery spirits and flighty geniuses frequently obtain more influence than

Macbeth Review
Roman Polanski's version of macbeth is certainly the most real and immediate filmed version of the play. The sets, costumes (or lack thereof), and casting all work to create an accurate depiction of "nasty, brutal, and short" 11th century life. And of course, there is the wonderful insight of Shakespeare's language to engage our modern sensibilities. One can only thank Polanski for casting such relatively young actors as his leads. Kings lived and died young

One of the enduring lessons of warfare is the advantage of taking and holding the high ground. The edge gained from being able to look down upon the enemy, detect his scheme of maneuver, and counter it from a position of dominance has long been recognized by military strategists.
