The New York Film Festival press screening of Joel Coen‘s The Tragedy of Macbeth happens on Friday morning, 9.24. Several public screenings of the A24 release will happen a few hours later (Alice Tully, Walter Reade and two other venues).
There’s an embargo, as always. Critics can never post reviews of the opening-night NYFF film until that night.
I’ve been detecting “uh-oh” reactions for a while now, but let’s cool our jets until the moment arrives.
Roman Polanski‘s shortened but reasonably faithful Macbeth (’71) ran 140 minutes; Coen’s version runs 105.
The trailer for The Tragedy of Macbeth pops on Tuesday, 9.21.
