Macbeth (1961)
Character: Macbeth
This is a very theatrical version, full of sound & fury, histrionics and big arm movements.

The plot of Macbeth, if you were snoozing during high school English class, is about an 11th century Scottish warrior who hatches a dubious plan to steal the throne. Spurred on by his wife Lady Macbeth, who wears the pants in the household, he finds himself swiftly slipping down the path of evil.
