DEFINING WELLES'S \MACBETH\: HOLLYWOOD HORROR AND THE HYBRID MODE
2011
Overview
The critical tradition of viewing Welles as a visual artist attracted to sophisticated rather than simplistic visual tactics is very ingrained; one critic, Gardner Campbell, uses Welles's supposed distaste of \"the melodrama of the close-up\" and embracement of \"hyper-stylized mise-en-scene[s]\" to argue that some of the more visually complex shots in Robert Stevenson's Jane Eyre (1943) should be credited to the influence of Welles rather than Stevenson (5).\\n4.1 1-12, uses the art of the close-up to tell the story of the formation and eventual suppression of Macbeth's conscience. Besides the visual and narrative ties Welles's Macbeth shares with Whale's Bride of Frankenstein, there are many aural and visual references throughout Macbeth to the generic conventions of the early Hollywood horror- film genre: a soundtrack featuring the constant raging of storms and eerie, discordant music; the expressionistic shadows and bodies hanging from the gallows; the skulls on stakes; Lady Macbeth's graphic descent off the battlements into the craggy ravine.
