There is never any doubt that this is a filmed record of the play and not I think a film in its own terms. The cast includes some of the best actors of the time and they are all excellent. Glenda Jackson stands out for me and not to forget Patrick Magee. The long Marat song later to be included in a Judy Collins album (which is where I first heard it )is a rousing anthem for the downtrodden

Great to see this here! I first tracked it down from an off-air VHS as a teenager and last came across it over a decade ago in a dreadfully pinked print at the ICA in London. A fascinating and unique film..

I saw this onstage with the same cast. “Gloriana” (in her trance states here) was already a force to be reckoned with as was the production as a whole piece. Such good memories…
