I loved this version, but whatup with the ending?


MacDuff standing with bloody weapons pointed straight down at (presumably) Malcolm's head? Directors like to get "fun" with the end, whether it's Polanski tacking on a visit by Donalbain to the three witches or that Patrick Stewart version with the MacBeths headed for hell in an elevator.

But back to this film. Some foreboding that this bloody fight for the Scottish throne isn't over?
