    Nice summary. BTW, Lady Macbeth *appears* the stronger willed of the two - but remember this play is all about appearances being deceptive, of the flower hiding the serpent - and vice versa. The Lady Macbeth who says she'd dash her baby's brains out is the same character who cannot murder an old man who looks like her father - and we know which is the real one, because the latter is delivered in soliloquy. She is the embodiment of 'foul is fair', just as her husband is the embodiment of 'fair is foul'...

    What a coincidence! I just started reading Macbeth in my English 2 class. This video helped me a lot because the Shakespearean English is confusing to me. Are you going to make future videos for the rest of the acts?

    I'm a year 11 student and I've got my Lit exam in a month, my English teacher used this in class for all of us to make notes from, but I couldn't help but comeback and rewatch it because the quotes and simple analysis is what I need right now! I recommended this to my friends too!! Keep up the videos they're really useful :]

    After having read Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and The Tempest (with the Tempest being the only play I have written 30-40 pages about for a pre-scientic thesis), I decided to read Macbeth as well. Though for the first time I find myself watching these sorts of videos since the play's characters all confuse me as of now. I thank you for your contribution!!!!

      Do you? Personally I think they're atrocious. A pre-schooler does better with a crayon up his ass.
