Titus Andronicus (1985)
Directed by Jane Howell
Overview
Having subdued the Goths, warrior Titus Andronicus returns to Rome to bury his sons, with Gothic Queen Tamora and her retinue as captives. The newly-dead Roman Emperor’s two sons, Saturninus and Bassianus, are competing for their father’s title. According to Roman custom, Titus sacrifices Tamora’s eldest son to the Gods; having the deciding vote, he also chooses Saturninus as Emperor. Both acts have tragic consequences.
