This was exceptional - the first of these NT 'live' screenings that has really made me wish I was there in person. A Simon Stone re-telling - and you can really see his distinctive stamp on it - of a Federico Garcia Lorca play starring Billie Piper and Brendan Cowell, it's gripping from the get go and intensely dramatic in every sense, feeling both universal and symbolic, and contemporary and filled with real people and real actions. "Barren", and of course there's blood by the end.
