Discuss the openings scenes of the Polanski and Welles' film versions of "Macbeth", considering their use of audio and visual techniques and their presentation of the witches. How do you personally respond to them?

"Although I enjoyed both openings to the film, I would prefer to watch Welles' 1948 film rather than Polanski's version as I found it fast paced and exciting. Welles' film left me anxious to know who Macbeth was and what these evil witches had to do with him; Polanski's film left wondering more about the witches more than Macbeth himself."
