Explain the differences you saw between watching the movie and reading scenes 1, 2, 3 of Macbeth. -what was easier; why? -what was more challenging;

The differences I saw between the movie and reading was the movie was a little sparse on details where as the book was not. Although, the movie gave a visual, so you can see what people look like, what they are doing, and the expressions of those people. Reading the scenes gave more depth and detail to the story, but the wording was very confusing. I found it easier to watch the movie, because I am a visual learner. So by watching the movie I could see what was going on as apposed to just reading the words. It was definitely more challenging to read the 3 scenes because of the language. Every other word I was looking over to the index to see what something meant and it was very time consuming. In short, I prefer a visual version of Macbeth because if you don’t understand what they are saying you can watch to see what they are doing and there expressions.
