Love is blind.

Considering the fact that we are just beginning to dive into then story of MacBeth, it's difficult to give detailed descriptions about Lady MacBeth and Macbeth. From the first Act, we see that Lady MacBeth is very controlling. She definitely wears the pants in her relationship with MacBeth. When Lady MacBeth hears about MacBeths opportunity to become king, she immediately jumps on the bandwagon to kill Duncan. Originally Macbeth is torn and traumatized at the thought of killing his dear cousin, but his lady easily manages to give him a change of heart. Lady Macbeth is the leader and MacBeth is her follower. Personally I feel that many audience members might label Lady MacBeth as crazy. Me personally? I see her as an attention craving gold digger. She's not satisfied with MacBeth being thane of two countries, she wants him to be a king. She's power hungry and is willing to shed blood if it means more power on her behalf.
