- An adaptation from maverick Alex Cox of Thomas Middleton's celebrated play from 1607, 'Revengers Tragedy' tells the story of a man whose wife is murdered on their wedding day, and his desire to exact revenge on the murderer.
In a post-apocalyptic Liverpool of the future, Vindici (Christopher Eccleston) returns from a self-imposed exile to bring down those responsible for his wife's murder. While Vindici's family have fallen on hard times, the murderer - known as the Duke (Derek Jacobi) - has become rich, powerful and virtually untouchable. Employing all his wit and cunning, Vindici sets out to gain the Duke's confidence and get close enough to kill him. - Actors:
