The movie also portrayed the brutality and merciless rule of the many foul rulers. The movie Braveheart also showed how the lives of the peasants performed their farming dut...

I think this shows that Lady Macbeth played a large part in influencing Macbeth to murder Duncan and attain what was prophesied for him...
