“Of course, the importance of coming out is personal. The importance of coming out is that you’re out yourself and your life is changed, I think, for the better. That affects those who love you – your friends, your family, people you work with. I would never say to a celebrity, ‘Come out for the good of society.’ You must come out for the good of yourself. The rest will follow. Nor does it mean that if you do come out, you have to immediately start talking about gay issues as if you were an expert.”

So I was lucky enough to go to a preview screening of Macbeth tonight.

  • It’s a dark, savage, bleak film. (It’s a dark, savage, bleak play.) But it’s also beautiful in its darkness. I love seeing the darkness in Shakespeare done right. This is a film that pulls no punches. 
  • Scotland is a character in this, as it should be.
  • The witches. W o w.
  • Stylistically it is perfect. Brilliant cinematography and sound editing. It’s a dream to watch. 
  • There are a couple of interesting and pretty genius narrative decisions on the part of Justin Kurzel that I won’t ruin for anyone but wow. What a great director that man is already.  
  • Fassbender is BRILLIANT, managing his understated scene-stealing thing while doing Shakespearean dialogue in a pretty flawless Scottish accent. (Nice coaching there, James McAvoy.) Marion Cotillard is also brilliant and her Lady Macbeth is fascinating to watch. 
  • Their chemistry is insaaaaaane. I was left hungry for more of their scenes together and I am so glad they’re going to be working together again (and with Justin Kurzel!) in Assassin’s Creed. 
  • The dinner scene is worth the ticket price alone.
