How About the Witches?
Does anybody know how they are doing the witches in this movie. Since this is in Australia I would assume the witches will be Aboriginal.
shareThese witches are white, look like teenagers and dressed as catholic schoolgirls the times they aren't naked.
shareHow do you come by all this info? Did you work on the film, or see an advanced screening somehow?
See the trailer.
I might see this film for the nudity, but this film looks Horrible. Worst Film Ever! Watch the trailer, looks like low quality rubbish!
The trailer is actully really good, I wouldn't be suprised if the trailer ends up being better than the movie.
sharei LOVE this movie...im australian and grew up in melbourne, so i think its awesome.
sharetotally agree with wiccanfae!!! ditto all da way
interesting comparision to Roman Polanski's too
I bet you look at this movie like we Swedish people look at Let The Right One In. I liked the lighting, the use of the original text and the witches.
shareThey did all look very young, based on their faces and bodies. None of them have a date of birth listed on this site.
Anyone know their ages?
I'm not familiar with Australian laws reguarding film nudity, but I'm assuming they're 18+ acresses who just happen to look young.
My vote history:

Kate Bell (Witch #2) was 23 when this film was made. I'm not sure about the other witches.
A few years ago, the Australian Classification Board (ACB) started banning the display of small-breasted women, regardless of age, lest they excite any ephebophiles in the community. See:

Given this, I'm surprised that this version of Macbeth was given classification, let alone broadcast on TV.
All this makes me feel weird. Two of my ex-partners were 25-35 year-olds with A-cup breasts. (One was a former ballerina.) I thought they looked just as pretty, dressed or otherwise, as other former partners with B- and C-cup breasts.
Should I have ignored their self-confidence, their great personalities and their interesting conversation (both had doctorates) and encouraged them to get boob-jobs, in case they upset some lunatic at the beach? Should I have asked them to stuff 'chicken fillets' into their bikinis? The idea would never have occurred to me at the time: I thought they looked great, and anyone who mistook them for 15-18 year olds must have left their Coke-bottle glasses at home.
Women come in all sizes and shapes. To ban the depiction of one size & shape seems absurd. Worse, it will inevitably result in even more women becoming dissatisfied with their bodies because they don't look like the women on film and TV. This dissatisfaction will result in even more unnecessary cosmetic surgery, and I trust that unnecessary surgery is, self-evidently, a bad thing.
