Macbeth

So.... I saw Macbeth last night. The catch? In German. I was really curious to see if they could translate it poetically, which, they can. Could I understand it? Not really. I got some of the monologues, but a lot just went right over my head. I think I'll stick to the original English when doing Shakespeare from now on. Shakespeare really doesn't need to be made any harder.

But that's okay, because I enjoyed it anyway. It was a crazy, cool experience that I'll probably remember for a very long time, even if some of my memories are of utter confusion. And it was a good Halloween activity.... bloody knives, murder, suicide, death, destruction. Good stuff!
