APRIL 2020 Macbeth’s process covered in the kicker of this Vanity Fair article. “…it’s not only a shutdown diversion. Rather than putting it up on the internet for free, Sanderson is hoping for a distribution deal—and that it might serve as one model for the future. ‘I despise the reasons it’s happening,” Sanderson says. “But God, I love the project.’” ANNE MIDGETTE VANITY FAIR

SEPTEMBER 2020 First review. “… an exciting version of Macbeth, with a unique visual style that does more in its simplicity and singularity of focus than many other films do with multiple camera shoots and fancy editing trick… a slow burning star turn from Leajato Robinson in the title role… It’s definitely worth the watch… moments will stick with you long after the final credits roll…” RODNEY HAKIM, NEWYORKSHAKESPEARE.COM
