What can you say about Macbeth that hasn't already been said? Well, Don and Chuck aren't exactly sure. But they do their best, anyway.

Joel Coen's new adaptation of the classic Shakespeare tragedy stars Denzel Washington as Macbeth and Frances McDormand as Lady Macbeth. Together, their ambitions lead to murder, an ascendance to the throne--and madness. It's well-acted and visually striking. But Shakespeare is traditionally hard to understand for modern ears. Can Don and Chuck enjoy watching a movie without understanding the dialogue?

Probably! Though, it might not be this one. They can at least understand enough to talk about some lessons, including:

\n
• The toxic side of confidence
\n
• The role of fate
\n
• "You need something under your ass."
\n
• The MEANING of LIFE
\n
• ...And some other, less meaningful ones.
