Plot Outline:

A banished hero of Rome allies with a sworn enemy to take his revenge on the city.

Plot: *SPOILERS INCLUDED* The citizens of Rome are hungry. Coriolanus, the hero of Rome, a great soldier and a man of inflexible self-belief despises the people. His extreme views ignite a mass riot. Rome is bloody. Manipulated and out-maneuvered by politicians and even his own mother Volumnia, Coriolanus is banished from Rome. He offers his life or his services to his sworn enemy Tullus Aufidius. Coriolanus and Aufidius march on Rome intending to destroy the city. Volumnia appeals to her son. He tries to reject her but eventually breaks. Aufidius, feeling bitterly betrayed, brutally murders Coriolanus.

Trivia: There are 4 entries in the trivia list – like these:

• Paul Jesson (Brutus) previously played Coriolanus in a BBC Radio production in 1998 and appeared as the First Citizen in The Tragedy of Coriolanus.
• Brian Cox appeared in Manhunter while Ralph Fiennes appeared in the remake Red Dragon.
• One line states that Coriolanus, played by Ralph Fiennes, “has grown from man to dragon.” In the film Red Dragon, Fiennes' character wished to become a dragon.
