Recommended for Lady Macbeth:
The Wolf of Wall Street- Recommended based on your interest in Power and Corruption
Lady Macbeth is not one to reach the top of the food chain without bitting off a few heads (or killing people). She understands the price that comes with power and goes for it anyway. This movie is based on a mega-rich stock broker who goes from Mr. Nice to Mr. Drugs&Hookers. The money destroys him and takes away all he ever had. This would be a film to watch before the third scene in Macbeth when Duncan is killed, and could possibly prevent the whole fiasco. She wants the power more than anything but forgets about the corruption that accompanies it. Maybe a vivid reminder like this movie would help open her eyes, and if not, it is still a truly entertaining few hours (something she doesn't get too often).
Criminal Minds- Recommended based on your interest in Crime and the Mindset of Macbeth
These FBI profilers are getting into the minds of some of the most twisted criminals in their time. This show will give Lady Macbeth insight into the insane workings of her disturbed husband's mind. The entertaining series will provide plenty of insane criminals to compare to herself and make her actions seem like child's play. Learning about these crimes and how to get away with them will help Lady Macbeth hone the craft and gather insight into her own crazy thoughts. Also, the action and crime present in the show will distract Lady Macbeth and allow for her long nights awake to be spent pondering the fiction crimes of the FBI.
Desperate Housewives- Recommended based on your interest in Drama and Powerful Women
These housewives are stirring up the quiet Wisteria Lane through their impossibly dramatic lives and intense relationships. Lady Macbeth will not only fall in love with each character for their individual personalities, but they will disintegrate her every desire to become a "simple" housewife. Their sins and problems will ease her troubled mind and justify her deeds. These women play off each others strong characters (regardless of the title) and Lady Macbeth will be able to form a sort of friendship with each. Through the last few chapters Lady Macbeth becomes a desperate housewife herself, and an opportunity to see others in action is a great way to learn how to handle it.
Mocking Jay- Recommended based on your interest in Power and Revolution
MockingJay is the third movie in a trilogy of three about a dystopian society called Panem. This particular one is about the revolution and the rise of the people. Lady Macbeth will be able to connect to the powerful main character, Katniss, and appreciate her masculine ways. However, it may seem odd to connect her to a movie about the people rising up; watching this may be seen as necessary research to help prevent this very thing from happening to herself. She will avoid becoming the Capital and be a Katniss herself. Not only does this movie have enough drama to satisfy a Queen, but it has enough action to raise her lowered spirits.
