Description
This BBC production filters Shakespeare's oddest "tragedy" (actually it's closer to melodrama), through the sharp eye of director Jane Howell. Best known for her work with the minor tetralogy (1-3H6 and R3), Howell in this Titus again shows how to work miracles with scarce resources. The spoken words remain those of Shakespeare, but the imaginative visual effects that supplement them are uniquely Howell's
