  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • Shakespeare in Color: a Symposium on Macbeth and African American Performances and Appropriations” Will Be Held Friday, Jan
    Macbeth Symposium Rhodes College, January 25, 2008 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE—January 7, 2008 Rhodes College to Host Symposium on Macbeth and African American Performances and Appropriations (Memphis, Tenn.)—National scholars, local artists, a film director and a Hollywood actor will participate in a conversation at Rhodes College about so-called ‘non-traditional’ casting of Shakespeare's plays and African American artists who have adapted Macbeth in their works. “Shakespeare in Color: A Symposium on Macbeth and African American Performances and Appropriations” will be held Friday, Jan. 25, in Blount Auditorium from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. It is free and open to the public. The symposium is presented in conjunction with local productions of Shakespeare's Macbeth by Hattiloo Theatre and Verdi's Macbeth by Opera Memphis. Directors of the stage productions—Rhodes Theatre Professor Julia “Cookie” Ewing and Larry Marshall—will be panelists at the Rhodes symposium, along with actors and singers from both opera and play. The Rhodes Jazz Ensemble will perform selections from Duke Ellington’s Shakespearean suite, Such Sweet Thunder, at the closing reception. Macbeth, Shakespeare’s shortest tragedy, has frequently been adapted. African Americans appearing in Shakespearean roles can be traced as early as 1821 when the African Grove Theater in New York presented Richard III; Ira Aldridge, one of the company’s leading performers, would go on to a successful expatriate career playing Shakespearean roles in England, including Macbeth. In 1936, Orson Welles directed an all-African American cast in Macbeth at the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem, New York; this production later toured the nation.

  • 2. Witch. Killing Swine. —Macbeth 1.3.1–21 Heads Have Surprising Uses
    “KILLING SWINE” AND PLANTING HEADS IN SHAKESPEARE’S MACBETH Thomas Herron 1. Witch. Where hast thou been, sister? 2. Witch. Killing swine. —Macbeth 1.3.1–21 Heads have surprising uses. The Mexican drug cartel La Familia “burst into national prominence [in 2006] . by rolling severed heads into a nightclub and declaring that its mission was to protect Michoacan state from rival gangs and petty criminals.”2 When Macdufff confronts Malcolm with “Th’usurper’s cursed head” at the end of William Shakespeare’s Mac- beth (1606), the new ruler fijinds himself in a similar position: how can I use it? It is a very public moment: Macdufff waits on Malcolm and Malcolm is “compass’d with thy kingdom’s pearl,” i.e., encircled by his noble follow- ers whose heads, like gems in a crown,3 have not yet been prized from their shoulders. They expect a new day now that “the time is free” with the death of the tyrant Macbeth (5.9.21–2). “What’s more to do” under the new king Malcolm, “Which would be planted newly with the time?” (5.9.30–1). Politics being politics, time will inevitably lead to more heads lost in Scotland, as one after another of Malcolm’s followers strive to become the next Thane of Cawdor or Fife and some won’t wait long or play fair to do so. The Scotsmen thrive in a vicious world rounded with beheadings: the play opens with an account of the rebel MacDonwald famously “unseam’d [. .] from the nave to th’ chops” by valiant Macbeth, slaughtered like a pig, and his “head” “fijix’d [.
