Penn’s Village Presents: Macbeth (1948)
Philadelphia City Institute
Join Penn’s Village and the Free Library of Philadelphia for Penn’s Village Presents, a free film series at the Philadelphia City Institute Library. Discussion will follow each screening. On the second Mondays of the month (with the exception of October which will be held on the first Monday), we’ll explore the work of Orson Welles through a six-screening retrospective.
The film Macbeth (1948) will be screening today. Again written, produced, directed by and starring Orson Welles, money was tight with yet another recalcitrant studio. Rotten Tomatoes concludes, "This haunting, eccentric Macbeth may be hampered by budget constraints, but Orson Welles delivers both behind and in front of the camera."
Registration is not required and these films are free and open to the public.
