	Titus (1999)
		This film is an adaptation of the Shakespeare play "Titus Andronicus." Titus returns victorious from war, only to plant the seeds of future turmoil for himself and his family.
		Her film "Titus," starring veteran actors Anthony Hopkins and Jessica Lang, is one of the most bizarre updates of William Shakespeare's work I can remember-and that is a very good thing.
		Saturninus chooses Titus' daughter, Lavinia (Laura Fraser), to be his wife, despite the fact that she has already been plighted to Saturninus own brother (James Frain).

	Titus Andronicus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Titus enters Rome to much fanfare, bearing with him Tamora, Queen of the Goths, her sons, and Aaron the Moor.
		Titus Andronicus was published in three separate quarto editions prior to the First Folio of 1623, which are referred to as Q1, Q2, and Q3 by Shakespeare scholars.
		Titus Andronicus is certainly Shakespeare's bloodiest tragedy; some measure of its matter can be gleaned from a single stage-direction: "Enter the empress' sons with Lavinia, her hands cut off, and her tongue cut out, and ravished." (Act II, scene IV).

		Titus Andronicus was published in three separate quarto editions prior to the First Folio of 1623; these are referred to as Q1, Q2, and Q3 by Shakespeare scholars.

	Titus Andronicus
		Titus Andronicus was an immensely popular play when it was first performed but critical responses have varied greatly over the centuries.
		'Titus Andronicus is a sophisticated revenge tragedy, where the binary oppositions of good and evil, Roman and Goth, civilization and barbarism are systematically questioned.
		The aftermath of the unrelenting deconstruction of Roman values leaves Titus stranded in a nightmare world, where Lavinia's body becomes his new "map of woe" and her speechless complaint a new alphabet.

	Aisle Say (Seattle): TITUS ANDRONICUS
		Some very solid performances are not enough to compensate for a rather hollow interpretation of Titus himself, and a very dubious shift to modern comedy in the play's final scene subverts what drama had previously been legitimized.
		That the innocent Lavinia is raped, and then has both hands cut off, and her tongue torn out, seems to me an intentional symbol of the desecration, disabling and voicelessness visited on all victims of war, whether military, political or social.
		I believed he was a soldier, but not a general, a veteran of combat and loss, but not a man who had given scores of his own sons willingly, so long as they died with honor.

	EMLS S.I. 1 (April 1997: 6.1-20): Understanding Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus and the EMEDD
		Although this speech is one of the best-annotated in literature, both the OED and Shakespearean editors missed the import of Hamlet's reference to the "slings and arrows" of Fortune.
		Titus Andronicus, a play printed in 1594, just before Sidney's Defence and Coote's English Schoole-Maister were published, illustrates what there is to learn when we apply their two guidelines and the EMEDD to glossing Shakespeare's language.

	A. B. TAYLOR, Titus Andronicus
		Alarbus' "lopped" and "hewed" limbs signal the entry into a dramatic world where hands are chopped-off, a tongue torn from a girl's mouth, heads severed, throats slit, and events rise to a macabre crescendo when, in a bloody banquet, a mother unwittingly devours her murdered sons.
		And the considerable distance between the qualities and values of Titus and those of Virgil's epic hero is emphasized by Tamora's comment on the "slaughter" of her son "in the streets" (112)--"O cruel, irreligious piety" (130).
		Titus must have had intimate knowledge of the brothers for his daughter is betrothed to one of them.

	SurfWax: News, Reviews and Articles On Titus Andronicus
		At a recent performance of ``Titus Andronicus,'' incense wafted up from the stage throughout the playhouse, and the darkening sky enhanced the mood of the play.
		But in my biography I have described how, by 1588, Shakespeare had already written Titus Andronicus, an early, and inferior, version of Hamlet, The Taming of A Shrew (later to be transmogrified into The Taming of the Shrew) and The Troublesome Raigne of King John (the forerunner of his more famous King John).
		But the Bard was more interested in untraditional marriage like that lurid family dinner in "Titus Andronicus," when Titus serves Tamora meat pies made from the bodies of her two sons, who have raped and mutilated Titus' daughter in revenge for Titus slaying Tamora's oldest son before her eyes.

		The theater presenting "Titus Andronicus" was misidentified in one reference in a Nov. 20 Style review.
		When the people vote instead for the celebrated general Titus (Ian Armstrong) to be their leader, Titus politely declines and names Saturninus a worthy substitute.
		"Titus" proceeds less as a story than as a series of one-upmanships, culminating in the terrifically malevolent dinner where the general's idea of justice is literally served.

	Titus Andronicus (1999) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		"Titus Andronicus" is, to my mind, Shakespeare's second-worst play, surpassed in awfulness only by "King John." The plot is ludicrous, the characters almost completely two-dimensional (especially the Moor Aaron, who is far more troubling from a racial standpoint than Shylock ever was), the dialogue perfunctory and awkward.
		To be sure, Shakespeare on his worst day is better than the very best work of most other writers, but with so many superior Shakespeare plays to pick from, anyone who chooses to do an adaptation of "Titus" had better bring something interesting to the table.
		Thus, this "Titus" is completely shallow, and to top it off, it's not even good from an aesthetic viewpoint.

	Titus Andronicus at LiteratureClassics.com
		Titus Andronicus has been regarded by many scholars, including Ben Jonson and T.S. Eliot, as an inferior play, lacking the depth and inspiration of Shakespeare's other tragedies.
		The motifs of mutilation and atrocity especially revulse contemporary audiences, but the play needs to be considered in light of the fact that it is distinct from the rest of Shakespeare's tragedies.
		Rather than insight into the self which is encouraged by King Lear, for example, Titus Andronicus is successful only in giving the overwhelming impression that human relations inevitably capitulate in violence and brutality.
