ANGELIKA’S NOTE

An official selection of the Toronto and Sundance Film Festivals, LADY MACBETH is described by Indiewire as in the vein of "Alfred Hitchcock directing Wuthering Heights." Set in 1865 rural England, Katherine (a sublime Florence Pugh), is stifled by her loveless marriage to a bitter man twice her age, whose family is cold and unforgiving. When she embarks on a passionate affair with a young worker on her husband's estate, a force is unleashed inside her, so powerful that she will stop at nothing to get what she wants. A "jaw-dropping" (Rolling Stone)depiction from BAFTA nominated Director William Oldroyd,
