...tyrant's head. Instead, we see the entire duel. Macbeth even picks Macduff up and swings him on his shoulders. Macduff while up there pulls out a dagger and stabs Macbeth in the back. But Macbeth is too strong to go down, and several soldiers rush in to pile stabbing upon stabbing (an homage to Julius Caesar?). Despite all this mauling, Macbeth is able to stand up one more time before pitching towards the audience down a flight of stairs to his death. I fear this finale betrays Houseman's many years of Hollywood movie-making...
...floor and demolished it. Still others tore out plumbing fixtures. Following emergency plans, Lovett, 49, summoned another guard and gave him the key to an arms cabinet in the prison office. As he rushed back to his cage, Lovett saw one group of prisoners setting fire to a pile of newspapers and toilet paper that they had stacked under a bunk and another starting a blaze at the opposite end of the building. A large exhaust fan sucked the flames along the ceiling. In seconds, the one-story structure was a furnace...

In his jersey pocket, police found two partly empty pharmaceutical vials-one labeled with the trade name for a brand of British "bennies"-and Tour promoters found themselves with the makings of a major dope scandal...
...threatening sounds but never get around to any blood sport. Two hotheads, they reason, are better than one, and together they ride out to gun down a gang of Mexican bank robbers and split the reward. As Van Cleef and Eastwood close in for the kill, bodies begin to pile up like cordwood, and enough lead is exchanged to re-equip the Egyptian army. Long before the end, the violence becomes a bit like a Grand Guignol show-raucous, incessant and absurd...
