>but what about cinema and TV don't they meet
>the world's epic needs?

The Godfather 1 and 2 are about as good an example of contemporary
tragedy as you can get, right from the House of Atreus (3 falls off the
perch a bit).

Epic?  I don't know.  Do you mean like Xena?  I find it a bit difficult
to take most television seriously.  (Given of course the presence of
brilliant exceptions).
