(1916)Overview
Satirical silent movie based on the play Macbeth written in 1916 by Peter Pan creator and playwright J. M. Barrie as a parody of the American entertainment industry. The film was made by the newly created British Actors Film Company in response to news that American filmmaker D. W.

It was screened at a charity benefit attended by the royal family, but was not widely distributed, and no copies are known to survive.
