Reading Ebert's review reminded me of another end-of-the-world movie:

We just finished watching the film.
Very strong feelings-I liked it, I was frightened, I need time to think about it.
I am happy that you attend to European films.
Last night we watched Macbeth by Orson Wells (1948).
Is there a post of yours recommending films with the original Shakespere dialogs? And if there is not, would you make one?
My love

Margaret, I picked Last Night up for this weekend.
Lemon, the filmed Macbeth I adore stars Ian McKellan and Judy Dench (1978; directed by Trevor Nunn). The stage is stark, the acting brilliant, and the focus entirely on the language and the play itself.
As for film recommendations, in the entry linked below, I recommend some films:
