what do you think?

What do you think?

Describe the process you took to present your scene.  What went well? Not so well? What would you do differently next time you had to do a scene?
Well the process of my scene was not hard but not easy was in the middle. Because some lines were hard, it was difficult to memorize the words. It went well but not that much, because we messed up once we were kind of nervous. Also it was our first time acting in public. If i would do it again i would try not to mess up and not to be shy, and pratice a little more to memorize better my lines.

Power: Test Question

In a short essay (5 paragraphs) explain this quote:

"Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely."

Make sure you  give examples of how this is true both in Macbeth and in real life.

It means that if a person is given any sort of power, they are likely to become corrupt in the area in which they are given power. They become more bossy because they  think that they have the power to do anything they wat. And it may also mean Absolute power is when a person is given complete and total control and the final say in everything.
People in power are often corrupt, and the more power they have the more bossy they are.some may have the absoulte power but one who has total authority is very likely to abuse his position in any way. Like Hitler he had alot of power when he was a live but he abused it by killing alot of innocent people.
For example, Macbeth went to go kill the king and Macbeth and his Lady Macbeth became king and queen. Lady macbeth was very happy  that she became queen because she wanted power, authority. Which also made her have absolute power over everything With this power that she been wanting she could take over anything and kill someone by just saying one word.
When someone has gives the power to someone else, like leave them in charge of a place or thing they believe that they can do anything just because they are in charge, and they can treat other like nothing and hurt them by doing that.
Absolute Power is taking advantage of everything and doing what they want. they should not be like that becuase there will be a time that they will be treated like they treated other, and feel how the others felt when they were doing it to them.

Discuss inaction. Is one less guilty of a crime if they let it happen but did not take an active role in it? Compare inaction to action---Are there levels of guilt?

For me if you saw something or knew something that is going to happen your guilty. Therefore you know what was going to happen even if you did not take an active role on it. But you did mentally, your part of it because you could stop anything bad that can happen to someone.

So What is up with Macduff?

 What will Macbeth do about Banquo? 

I think that Macbeth or Lady Macbeth will kill Banquo or get Banquo killed, or Lady Macbeth and Macbeth will hire someone to kill Banquo 

Directors

What are the factors that influence how a director presents a scene? Why do you think different directors see things so differently?

For me every director has his own vision of things. Some directors are more creative than others because they more open mind than others. 

Manliness

Discuss the question, what does it mean to be a “man”?  Do you agree with Lady Macbeth’s view? Or do you think Macbeth’s consideration is more “manly”?

A man to me is someone who can protec for himself and his family Also a man is that someone is in charge of everything to make rule that will protect him and his love one but rule can be strict because they might hurt someone. But for me Lady Macbeth is for manly than Macbeth because for me macbeth is a wimp.
Why do you think the author had Macbeth win, though he wrote Fortune seemed to favor Macdonwald?  What sort of man fights like Macbeth did? 


For me the author had macbeth win because he had the fortune and that made him decide over him a sort of man fights like macbeth did is a man that does not leave a job completely done. he made sure that thee his worse enemy was dead and macbeth made sure that anything that was a danger to him or anyone was done with.
