Write an in depth response (2-4 paragraphs) to the following question.
Film: Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus (directed by Julie Taymor) – links to resources attached (play and film)
Analyze the overall film using information from this week’s content (Klages &/or Strindberg), several pieces of critical terminology on plot and character (and other elements)
Theatre lecture as well as the ideas of montage and mise en scene in film from the videos in Week 5.
Include literary terminology from week 4.
Layer visual art concepts and any relevant Music concepts from Weeks 2 & 3. You may also want to consider the information on periods and styles in Week 2 Contents.
Pick a specific scene (or section, since a couple films are pretty much 1 long scene) to compare the text to the film. What differences do you find? Does the film adaptation contribute to the Thought (or Character or Plot) of the original play? How are cross disciplines used to enhance Thought (or Plot or Character)? Layer on ideas and information from at least two other humanities disciplines as you analyze. For example, consider the text as poetry, the film images as visual art, literary themes emphasized by images, the editing or dialogue as the rhythm of music, the staging as dance, etc.
