Power is still important today

The play has been adapted to film many times,including Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood,which takes place in feudal Japan,and a modernized version called Scotland, PA,in which Macbeth and his rivalsare managers of competing fast food restaurants.No matter the presentation,questions of morality,politics,and power are still relevant today,and so, it seems, is Shakespeare's Macbeth.
