Titus

Anthony Hopkins and Jessica Lange ignite the screen in a strikingly original film, freely adapted from Shakespeare's "Titus Andronicus," about two powerful adversaries, each with an insatiable hunger for revenge. Titus (Hopkins) is a noble Roman general whose spoils of war included Tamora, Queen of the Goths (Lange), and her three sons. But when Titus sacrifices his eldest to appease the gods, he set in motion an escalating chain of savage reprisals that will ultimately consume them all. Directed by Tony Award winner Julie Taymor (Broadway's "The Lion King"), this is a shocking journey into the darkest, most seductively evil depths of the human heart, where vengeance and passion reign supreme.
