Starring Katherine Hepburn, Vanessa Redgrave
Kakoyannis is as faithful to Euripides' play as modern interpreter can be. Hepburn is compelling as the fallen Queen Hecuba who has lost her sons to war and daughters to slavery. Redgrave is stellar portraying Andromache, who helplessly watches her young son taken away to be executed. Rating: A–
