Apple Original Films and A24 are hosting a special “Shakespeare at the Cinema” event on Sunday, December 5, 2021. Theaters across the globe will be screening four-time Oscar-winning director Joel Coen’s The Tragedy of Macbeth, a film that’s generating Oscar buzz and was recently named as one of the National Board of Review’s best films of the year. Coen also earned NBR’s Best Adapted Screenplay honors and Bruno Delbonnel won the organization’s Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography award.
Immediately following the screening, a Q&A featuring Joel Coen and four-time Oscar-winner Frances McDormand will be live-streamed from AMC Lincoln Square.
Tickets to the special screening will be free – yes, you read that right – and are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Per Apple Original Films and A24, “guests are required to follow CDC guidelines and local directives at the theater.”
