With the imminent release of Rose Matefeo’s brand new romcom Starstruck on BBC Three at the end of April, this coming year marks a watershed moment in broadcasting history with most BBC Three comedy either starring, written by or created by women. BBC Three will be the first UK channel to achieve this landmark in female representation with 58% of long-form scripted comedy written by women.
Upcoming titles include Lazy Susan, Starstruck and Ellie and Natasia plus the second series of both In My Skin and Back to Life.
In addition to this, the BBC today announces four new BBC Comedy Slices for BBC Three, all of which are written by and/or star female talent: Ladybaby, Amicable, Dinosaur and Britney, which results in the majority of comedy programmes on BBC Three now being female led.
Kate Daughton, outgoing Head of Comedy at the BBC, says: “Building on the huge success of Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Daisy May Cooper, this marks a monumental achievement and is testament to the fact the most pioneering and exciting new voices in comedy are increasingly female.”
Kate leaves the Comedy Commissioning team today having made a tremendous impact overseeing a raft of female first titles. Since Kate’s arrival in 2017 she has commissioned and nurtured Fleabag, Mum, Ghosts, Gavin & Stacey: Christmas Special (2019), This Time With Alan Partridge, Back to Life, The Goes Wrong Show, Out of Her Mind, Two Doors Down, In My Skin and Man Like Mobeen. Alongside the forthcoming Witchfinder, Alma’s Not Normal and Stephen Merchant series The Offenders (w/t).
Shane Allen, Director of BBC Comedy, says: “Five years ago there were still articles asking where all the funny women were. That hoary old nonsense can finally be dispensed with once and for all. It’s a level playing field with the most vibrant and dynamic work coming through from females writers and writer performers who are elevating the art form of comedy and expanding its horizons. As for Kate Daughton, no longer will she curse at me for loud sneezing in the office. Partly because she’s leaving and mostly because we’ve not been in the office. Truly bereft; in denial that she’s off and we’re lucky to have had her for so long.”
Charlotte Moore, Chief Content Officer, says: “Kate’s impeccable taste, whip smart comedy brain and beguiling ways with talent have had a transformative impact on the comedy output in her time here. The fact that BBC Three can claim to be the first UK channel with a majority of female led and written scripted comedy is in large part down to her vision and passion for backing genre defining female creatives. She’ll be sorely missed but thankfully leaves behind a terrific legacy of shows ahead.”

刚看完剧本看这个 这片还真的蛮遵循原著的
相比15版麦克白逊色不少，戏剧般的形式感和黑白并没有加分，最重要的内心情感戏也是一带而过，不知道在拍些什么……
真就舞台剧，除了一些删改基本上都照搬原著，再复习了一遍属于是（看完好想搞麦克白的舞台剧（感觉力度不够啊，不够阴沉，不够邪，也不够癫，基本上都是飘飘软软的感觉。麦克白最后的独白呈现也太萎了，战前的演出倒是很不错。摄影和剧本感觉挺割裂，摄影虽然挺好，但是感觉和剧本各走各
莎翁剧到底适合什么样的影像表现形式？室内+黑白+多象征
试图以《爱德华二世》的方式拍出一部严肃史诗，但除了摄影之外，其余部分一板一眼，改编更是缺乏灵气，令观众败兴。将《麦克白》影视化的作品有很多，有一座大山无法被跳过，那就是黑泽明的《蜘蛛巢城》，众多影视化《麦克白》在改编与本土化的水准上无出其右者。对于如此举世闻名的著作，去理解它，接纳它，融化它。不要一味瞻仰它。无法将它化成自己的东西，如何能游刃有余地将他人的故事创造出新的生命力呢？看看黑泽明对于人物性格与形象的设置，障眼法式精准的调度，他的改编为何成功不言而喻。本片中“雾”是一项很关键的意象，运用得十分巧妙，这一点倒是与《蜘蛛巢城》颇为相像，或许亦是受到了黑泽明的启发。遥想之前，科恩兄弟拍摄《逃狱三王》，从《奥德赛》中汲取养分，充分发挥自身特色，充满灵气，而今却不见。
极简的布景反而更衬演技 大量的独白不抓马也不违和 算是优质的改编了
众所周知，科恩是黑泽明粉丝，黑泽明是莎翁粉丝。所以这部电影是不是透过的布层有点多了，反而费劲。
另外，多加一星给摄影。
丹泽尔·华盛顿舞台感强，科恩嫂不太适合这类片，开场几个角色——国王、上尉都戏剧感十足，女巫是最大亮点。不知为什么，其他人戏剧性独白都没什么，男女主却有点别扭。
也不是第一次看麦克白的故事了，这版比较打动人的是前段对于莎翁原著的纪实化呈现，在文本上显得更为厚重。有点可惜的是，后半段节奏掉的很快，使得人物终究不立体，故事情节不够圆润，震撼力也就不太够。麦克白的悲剧是必然的，历史上的很多失败一直在不断重演，成王败寇亘古不变，守天下永远比打天下难。
3.5 视觉效果很喜欢，布景和灯光太美了，这版的女巫令人惊叹，但导演是科恩兄主演又是这种级别的卡司，以为剧作在改编上会有更深层次的挖掘，结果真的只是还原了《麦克白》，并且也偏向于戏剧风格，让人怀疑时至今日这种程度的电影版改编是否有必要。
以前看中翻的莎剧总是不以为然，原来莎剧的精髓在英文，这台词听的真过瘾！摄影就不多说了，就提一下黑白电影里用烟雾转场挺有意思的。这次又把戏剧与电影的融合推向另一个高度，可见科恩兄弟对风格的深刻理解，他们在我心中是目前这一方面的天花板（不过）。以前看中翻的莎剧总是不以为然，原来莎剧的精髓在英文，这台词听的真过瘾！摄影就不多说了，就提一下黑白电影里用烟雾转场挺有意思的。这次又把戏剧与电影的融合推向另一个高度，可见科恩兄弟对风格的深刻理解，他们在我心中是目前这一方面的天花板（不过这次弟弟没来hhh）。
强舞台布景，光与影辅佐戏剧张力，绝佳的构图、调度与声画剪辑，麦克白宅邸绝对是近年来最好的电影场景之一。科恩嫂和丹泽尔，他们呈现了好的表演，但同时将违和的语速、姿态与步伐带入了悲剧之中，最精彩的段落：科恩嫂梦游（6.5/10）
Malcolm太像反派了也！全程看光与影构成的城堡了
对于向来不在看之前了解演职员表等背景的人来说，看到是乔尔科恩导演挺惊讶的，一个是他脱离科恩兄弟这一导演组合，再一个科恩兄弟的作品一向是无限接近现实，再加上自编的剧本，代表性的如《冰血暴》，而本片改编自莎士比亚的经典戏剧《麦克白》，很明显和科恩之前的风格大不相同，影片采用1.37:1接近正方形的比例和黑白色调，布景极简，作为电影舞台感更重，脸部特写居多，关注点集中在演员演技上。而台词也充满原著中的诗性，。
這份典型很努力做但分數不高的功課，原因是教授們見過世面目睹過其他更好的Macbeth
极端风格化的一出棚拍舞台剧。同为A24出品，像是《灯塔》和《绿衣骑士》的集合体。与《灯塔》同为4：3黑白画幅，前者更注重光影而本片更注重构图。弗朗西斯麦克多蒙德的又一个冲奥角色，戏份不够突出不看好。除了视觉上足够享受外与之同等的是观影过程的空虚。
再次叹服他们每一版麦克白都好绝活！
极简主义，风格化摄影，只是莎翁在被翻拍过无数遍后很难再有突破、丹泽尔·华盛顿和科恩嫂的表演也缺乏惊喜。
