Next - MacBeth - Roman Polanski presents his nightmarish vision of Shakespeare's classic tragedy about the lust for power--and its bloody consequences. Jon Finch is Macbeth, the Scottish war hero whose insane ambition unleashes a cycle of violence. Prompted by the supernatural prophecy of three witches, Macbeth is goaded by his Lady (Francesca Annis) into slaying King Duncan (Nicholas Selby) and assuming his throne. Macbeth plunges further into murder and moral decay to keep the unsteady crown on his head. While his wife crumbles away in guilt and madness, the haunted Macbeth fights to prevent another dark forecast which may doom him. Filmed in rugged North Wales, Polanski's Macbeth is a tale told by a master, full of sound and fury--and genius! Previous - Lucrezia Borgia - Directed by silent film pioneer Abel Gance, Lucrezia Borgia blazes onto the screen with the story of one of history's most cruelly ambitious families. With the same high style and exquisite attention to detail that the director demonstrated so breathtakingly in Napoleon, Lucrezia Borgia has been called an exuberant display of Gance's filmmaking prowess. Included on the DVD are two rarely-seen shorter films by Gance. Au Secours! uses experimental editing and photography to illustrate a man's adventurers in a haunted house. La Folie De Docteur Tube is a highly advanced experimental comedy about a mad scientist who discovers a sneezing powder that can alter someone's physique. This film, which uses mirrors to create distorted images, is considered by many to be the first appearance of the avant-garde in French cinema.
