This film was the televised version of the sellout stage show, starring Anthony Sher as Macbeth and Harriet Walter as Lady Macbeth. It had an enormously successful run in England, Japan and the USA. It was filmed exclusively at the Roundhouse theatre in Chalk Farm, London, where Nicol Williamson's Hamlet had been filmed over 20 years before....
The drama is really excellent, I love the way Gu Wei took care of the patient, esp the little kid. Although he might be cold at first, but he is really warn inside. Xiao Zhan did the very brilliant performance, full score for him.
