| Synopsis: | I'll take its own synopsis fiom the programme. 'Your husband runs off with a younger woman and leaves you with nothing? How do you get back at him? Kill the kids.' Really? Kill the kids? The Greek classics live on because we love the idea that the basic human emotions and dilemmas are eternal, unchanged over the millennia. But this Medeia is not really recognisable as the psychological portrait of a modem woman. Neither the elegant gowns nor the effortlessly contemporary didogue are going to bring her remotely close to the kind of psychotic maternal child-killer you might read about with horror in the papers. Jonathan Gibbs, Time Out London | |||||
