Has anyone seen Julie Taymor's "Titus"? It stars Tony Hopkins as Titus Andronicus & Alan Cumming as Saturninus.
This Shakespearean monstrosity is my favorite guilty pleasure film. I've seen it over 15 times now and I still can't admire it enough. Subject matter aside- it's very grim- the craftsmanship should make any film fan take serious note. The set pieces are stunning, the modern flourishes are just right, the COSTUMES!- I could go on & on.....
Am I daft or am I on to something?
