Orson Welles' 'Voodoo Macbeth' (1936)

I've not seen this before: 1936 Newsreel footage of Orson Welles' all-black version of Macbeth, the play's action relocated from Scotland to Haiti, complete with fruity newsreel voiceover at the beginning praising the New Deal public works program money that funded the performance. One can't judge from such a snippet, of course, but the direction looks rather ... gnashing and over-the-top. I don't doubt you had to be there.
