028-Titus with Carlee from Hit Factory Pod

Jay and Kayte are joined by Carlee from Hit Factory podcast to talk about a movie near and dear to all of our hearts, Julie Taymor's brutal and gorgeous Shakespeare adaptation, Titus (1999). We discuss intentional anachronisms, faithfulness to texts, how Victorians tried to re-brand Shakespeare (and the Classical Era!) and heroes and villains. 
This is an incredible movie that we all love so much but it's hard to find so please enlist your tech-savvy friends! (big wink)
