Macbeth Act 1 Response

While at first Macbeth could be sent as confusing, it becomes easier to understand over time. I was confused at the very beginning of Act 1, but as I went through and reread it became easier to grasp not only Act 1 but later Acts as well. So far it feels like Macbeth feels like a hero because of how highly Duncan speaks of both him and Banquo. When Macbeth and Banquo are told their prophecies, it seems Macbeth is more impressed than Banquo. Later on, when Macbeth becomes thane of Cawdor, he is convinced the prophecy is ture, and begins thinking about how it will come to fruition. However, Banquo is less convinced, stating it as a way for Devils to manipulate men.
