Orson Welles’s for one.

Maybe it’s because it is difficult to find online. But it can be found and rented on Vimeo. Also sometimes it can be seen using your public library card.
Obviously it’s a matter of taste, but at least in my opinion, I think it (the version with Antony Sher as Macbeth) is the best, certainly leagues better than the one with Fassbender. Although it doesn’t have the beautiful cinematography of that film, what it does have is superb acting and adherence to the script, and a very fresh interpretation. I really can’t say enough good about it.
I do agree that the versions directed by Trevor Nunn and Roman Polanski are also very, very good, each in its own way.

The Trevor Nunn version is basically a faithful version of Shakespeare’s play, using the original text.
